Starting fruit trees from seed
We picked up two fruit trees from the local nursery this year. Each tree was about 5-7 years old, and MAN were they expensive! one of the trees is a "Bali Cherry" also known as an Evans Cherry. It's got sour cherries, is self-pollinating, and a natural dwarf that will mean it will get a max of 10' tall, give or take. It's a pretty tree, and a good size for the 'burbs. But a small little tree like that doesn't provide a whole lot of fruit....and I can't see paying what the future prices will be. So I'm going to try and start some little trees from the pits of these little cherries. Has anyone done this before, or would you care to live vicariously through these posts?
I tell you now, the damn squirrels love these things. As do the birds.
