I dunno, might be a little late for scions at least in my area. All my trees are done blooming or will be done soon and all the buds have pushed.

Ichoudhury: All commercially sold cherry trees are budded or grafted. What has led you to believe that the trees you are looking at are not? Lowe's and Home Depot should be publicly flogged for selling cherry varieties like Bing in Georgia, where they have zero chance of producing edible cherries. A softer variety like Lapins would give you your best shot, but even that won't be easy in your climate. Decent sweet cherries are hard to grow in the southeast and mid-atlantic. As you shop around, be conscious of the significant differences in cherry rootstocks, which will determine the size of your tree. For most backyard growers, dwarfing rootstocks like the Gisela series are more practical than the older types like Mazzard, which can grow trees that are 35 feet tall. You may not be able to find trees on dwarfing rootstocks locally, and HD and Lowe's won't even know the difference, but you can shop around online until you find a mailorder tree on a rootstock of your choosing. It would be well worth the time and effort to do so. Don Yellman, Great Falls, VA

mamuang I hope you don't cut it down. Do you top graft them to another variety? I graft my rejects over to sour cherries which are relatively easy to grow here. ltilton is the flavor pretty good on white gold? fruitnut the sweet cherries do seem to be picky on their growing requirements. I wasted a lot of money as well growing them in the orchard and lost a couple of large orders before I learned our clay/lome soil does not drain as fast as they like. I now grow them on artificial hills I made similar to terraces and the rootstock grows fine there. I went and checked them out this morning and the rootstock did fine I started this year.

So I finally found someplace online that has a 4-1. The varieties are Bing, Stella, Black Tartarian, and the one I'm most excited about, Rainier. Has anyone had experience with multi-graft cherry trees?
