  • Question

    I am afraid I can’t be certain about the habitat of the plant species to which this seed belongs but it could be the UK or New England. I would appreciate your kind assistance. The seed is likely quite old but seems to have kept its colour. It might have been used as a bead in a necklace. The scale is inches and fractions thereof. Thus the seed is about 4/10ths of an inch in diameter. It was found under floorboards.

    Answer

    Dear SDixon, I do wish I could help, but I don't recognize that seed. I'm sorry, but without more information, I won't be able to assist.
