Seed in Virginia Name: Jennifer S. Date: Wednesday, August 28,
2002 While in Chincoteague, VA we came across what looked like a
coconut shell. We brought it home and cracked it open and
discovered a brown seedlike object about the size of a peach.
The place we found it was near many different trees including
pine trees. What kind of seed could this be? Perhaps a pine cone
tree seed? A web page with many items related to tree fruit in
the mid-Atlantic region. Not a pine cone seed anyway. Anthony R.
