Nanking Cherry Seeds Pembina Plum SeedsCouldn't load pickup availability
These Crabapple seeds came from an unidentified family tree planted locally about thirty years ago. The parent bears reliable heavy crops without thinning and shows some resistance to apple scab.
Its one inch fruit ripens in late August, hangs on the tree, and deepens to purple by October. Oak Summit Nursery has used the crops to make many gallons of crabapple wine. The fruit can be eaten fresh but is better for processing.
Seedlings will vary in fruit size and other traits and may also be useful as rootstocks, wildlife trees, or ornamentals.

How to stratify seed
In the fridge. Put the seed in a bag with a damp medium such as peat moss, vermiculite, sand or coco coir. The medium is only there to hold moisture. Keep the bag in the fridge, above freezing, for the cold period shown, then sow.
Or outside. Sow the seed outdoors in the fall and let winter do the cold period.
