Description

The listing, Open Pollinated Cherry Seeds has ended.

My semi-dwarf Rainier cherry tree produces an abundant crop of yummy cherries every year, great for drying, canning, baking into pies, or even eating fresh. These seeds, cross pollinated with other cherry varieties that do well up here in Idaho- the most likely suspects being of a variety my neighbors only know is genetic dwarf- will likely mature into larger but similarly productive trees. These come in packets of ten.

Do you think they will grow in Tampa, FL?

They might. You will have to cold stratify the seeds for several weeks prior to planting them in the ground, though, as the seeds won't germinate without a good "winter." Also, you won't want to mulch.

Which valley are you talking about? They do pretty well in Idaho's upper Snake River Valley....

Same thing as with Tampa. Give the seeds a good several weeks refrigeration in soil before planting them, and don't mulch. You might want to give them a little more water, though, and give them some cooler northern exposure, as these seem to like it cooler.
