Are these seeds already germinated? I have read that cherry tree seeds must be wintered in the fridge for a few weeks before planting them.

We purchased 4 of these kits (different seed varieties) even after following all directions given none of the seeds germinated.

I have tried that and nothing, none of the trees I planted germinated. Really quite frustration.

Do not refrigerate or freeze, they rot very quickly after harvest. I live in Florida so I am not really an expert in frozen ground, but from what I have heard from others it should be fine.

I would start them germinating in December or January. They have about a 120 day cycle from being planted in the garden to bearing fruit. I live in Portland, Oregon so that means getting them ahead of schedule as soon as possible. They don't like cold weather at all. Keep them inside after they germinate. You can sprout them in peat pots and then transplant them into the garden once it gets over 65 degrees at night consistently.

It's the opposite. Freezing it PREVENTS it from losing any nutrients. It's the best way to keep the seeds at full potency. Especially if you grind them in advance. They don't actually "freeze" in the freezer and it keeps them from turning rancid. You should also make sure to keep them in an opaque bag so they aren't affected by light.

I've had that problem also when I planted them in pots. So, as soon as I sprouted several seeds, I planted them outdoors when the danger of frost has past. Three actually grew to about 10 ft tall before winter came back.A friend actually grew them in her greenhouse in big pots. You could try doing it that way.

When you don't have any more cold/frost at night. Here in Ct., I put my seedlings in end of April, beginning of May. It's a good head start on what you put in your garden.

I don't know. We live in South Carolina and plant them in the spring and save the seeds from the flowers for spring replanting. My guess in warm climates that will not get a hard freeze they might do OK

sorry, I cannot answer that as I have not had any luck with these seeds, it was an incredibly disappointing year with many seeds I tried and I followed the directions exactly. And the ones that did germinate didn't mature :-( I would recommend getting starters from a local nursery, make sure you have both male and female and expect to wait up to seven years to get flowers and maybe longer for fruit. Best of Luck with your garden! Keep trying!

No, I think they are Mammoth Sunflower seeds and I intend to plant them outside when the weather is nice. Two totally different types of plants--I would definitely not plant them together. I hope this helps :)

Dry the seeds if you want to keep seeds until next season. If you want to plant right away drying is not necessary. Place seeds in an air tight container and store in refrigerator or freezer. Freezer is best.

I wasn't able to get any seeds to germinate and sprout. It has been suggested to me since then that it might help to place seed in the freezer for a few weeks before planting.

The cherries need not be refrigerated - though I would recommend keeping them in the dark. I keep the extra bags in the freezer. I checked the bags but did not see any indication of shelf life on the packaging (if you are considering long term storage without refrigeration/freezing).

I was also very disappointed that it took so long for the seeds to germinate. These are supposed to be wildflowers that grow naturally, and yet they're so difficult to cultivate. I planted the seeds indoors in the month of March, and I've recently planted them in raised beds and containers. They continue to be very low growing and spreading out. My plan is to transfer them to the ground in autumn at the earliest. Be patient and hang in there. I just check on the plants every now and then and just let them do their thing at their own pace. Good luck!

Most seeds last for years if properly stored. After a few years though they start taking longer to germinate and the rate of germination decreases. Also keep in mind that these produce seed that you can save too. To properly store them put them in a zip-lock bag and put them in the refrigerator. They should be good for years.

i have not received my seed yet , apparently it got lost but the shipper is re-sending it to me. in the caribbean here we just plant in the soil , but for other countries with snow you have to refridgerate for at least 2 - 4 weeks before planting.

No, like most dried fruit, they require no refrigeration. I recently bought these cherries and found them to be of high quality and very tasty.
