Source for dried Betel nuts
Does anyone have a reliable source for dry betel nuts. I’m doing some black and white pieces in the near future and thought these might make some nice accents.

Tagua nuts?
Is it possible you are actually referring to the tagua nut?
Re: Tagua nuts?
Brian, no. Tagua nuts are an off white in color. Betel nuts are white with black veins. But, thanks for asking.
Re: Tagua nuts?
Good luck with your search....nothing I have found in a search is white with black veins....all appear to be off-white with brown veins.

You might try searching instead for areca catechu seeds. No, I didn't need to look up the scientific name. The seeds are bought and sold in the nursery trade.
