It is spring and there are lots of these seed washed ashore in the back of my house. I have grwo them in my sump/refugium before and they did great. Sorta grow like mangrove. Can anybody ID this seed? I got a great numbers of them at this time. They did great in my sump.
Thanks

I will collect a bunch and when I go to San Antonio, I will drop it with somebody in a few weeks. Maybe that person can bring them to the meeting.

I'd like some also Minh. Not 100% sure but they look like black mangrove seedpods to me.
