Cherry, peach, and plum seeds wanted

Thanks!

I cant seem to get any plums because of brown rot and codling moths.

I have some damson plum growing in our yard (I have no idea what the tree is, only that it is most likely damson), and it has just begun to drop the fruits. It's quite sweet, and of course quite hardy, since I live in Finland. I could collect those very easily. And for cherries,  Those I could also collect.
Hazelnuts I have also, in case you want to exchange them for some genetical variety.

Hi Josh, would love some of your cherry volunteers if you are interested in a greengage plum seed trade? Where are you located? My mail address is UK, although I do have a small plot in southern Portugal that I just purchased which your cherry would be destinted for I'm looking to regenerate the land with as many varieties of fruit and nut trees as possible. Volunteer trees and seeds are my first step in regeneration of this quite barren plot. I hope planting will help build the soil and provide some shade while developing a small food forest.  I may have others to trade but am still getting to know what grows here and what I may be able to harvest as a seed stock for trade.
Kind regards, Shari

Josh Willis wrote:Hi Shari,
I'd be happy to trade - I'm located in the east coast of the US (zone 7).  But - just want to double check that you'd want these.  Looks like you have a small plot, and these cherries are probably descended from a mix of Mahaleb and Mazzard rootstocks (more info here https://www.orangepippintrees.com/articles/fruit-tree-advice/rootstocks-for-cherry-trees ), which are very vigorous - will get 16' to 20'+ when mature.  Of course, that's depending on pruning & growing conditions.  And you can always cut some down later if they get too big, I suppose!  Anyways, if you are still interested, just let me know your email address & I will follow up.

Hi Josh, a rather belated follow up!! Thanks for the seeds, received several weeks ago and they look great. I'm looking forward to getting them in the ground this fall. My greengage tree is rather belated this year, and a bit sparse on fruit (early high winds and 'beast from the east' weather had a detrimental impact on blossom, and therefore fruit! BUT...have managed to harvest some fruits this week and am currently cleaning/drying. Should have them in the mail to you next week. Thanks so much for this wonderful trade. Happy planting 😀
Kind Regards, Shari
