you will want to remove the outer pit to get to the
seed of the peach.My peach tree died& all those
seeds I shared never thought to SAVE any for myself(Loz.did I hear you'd send some into fall fling?))I've used some of the wood to cook some chicken and it was tastey.They need a chill period below 41 for so long60-120 days.You may get one this
spring or the following
spring.Winter sow:Stick it in a pot to grow like a 2 qt pot stick it 2-3 inches below the soil. not every pit will germinate.Your best luck would be to sow in a ziplock bag..in the fridge.(most fridges are 35-42 degrees) this will be for like 2-3 months or longer. till it sprouts.When the root starts to emerge...when its at least 1/2 long or longer you can transplant to a container. If the pits are dry when you get them.SOAK soak them overnight or 2 days.It will aid in germination.And I imagine a pit fresh out of the peach would respond well for sprouting.I can't get pits cause the squirll beats me to them.I thought i dug a
seedling last fall...and was a viburnuim.(I'm still thrilled,but wanted the peach...and know I'll get it right this time....cause the peach seeedling is the one left...ha HA I bet he dug it& planted it for me!)
Pear trees can be grown the same...apples,cherrys,apricots.I'm actually thinking of trying some of my neighbors pear tree
seeds.she has 2
growing.Alot of trees are grafted onto apple& pear tree
seedlings.running some searches should get lots of info.Pear tree branches are suppose to root easily over winter stuck in pots with the rooting ends dipped in 3 inches of rooting hormone.
Good luck!
