DanP says... I am going to see if I can get some budwood from the Melbourne Botanic Gardens this winter. It looks like Prunus tomentosa may be graft compatable with plum rootstock - worth a go. Re the high chilling requirement - I have seen reports on the internet of it growing in Florida. It seems a shame that this plant is not available through any nursaries. | About the Author DanP Kedron 21st February 2014 1:08pm #UserID: 9530 Posts: 10 View All DanP's Edible Fruit Trees |

BenW says... There is one growing at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne, according to their website. You would have to find a ranger and ask very nicely for a cutting or two... I have a couple of things I would like to ask them about, so maybe I will do it myself ;) It seems that as well as taking easily from cuttings, they are graft compatible with plums, so that might be a good way to multiply propagation material rapidly, as it seems a few people are interested. | About the Author BenW Kinglake West,3757,VIC 1st July 2014 11:38am #UserID: 5390 Posts: 144 View All BenW's Edible Fruit Trees |

DanP says... BenW, hello again. I have Minnie Royal and Royal Lee here in Brisbane. This is their first winter so I'm interested to see when they break dormancy and if any of the flower buds ultimately set fruit. I have an interest in low-chill cherries in general, hence my interest in species that may have some low-chill potential. | About the Author DanP ,4031,QLD 11th July 2016 5:01pm #UserID: 9530 Posts: 10 View All DanP's Edible Fruit Trees |

431neb says... I’ve been searching high and low for a Nanking Cherry (P tomentosa). This discussion is the most promising lead I’ve found. I’ve emailed dozens of nurseries and stalked numerous Instagram accounts hoping to find one in Australia. I’ve been reduced to buying seed but I’m not sure I have the time and patience required for that. Has anyone found a source ? I’m also interested in Goumi berry and Serviceberry /Juneberry/ Saskatoon. Thank everyone . I’m easy to find on Instagram @431neb.

Joel15 says... Hi 431neb, Daley's have sold Prunus tomentosa in the past but it is a hybrid with a different leaf, I may have a small one of these floating around somewhere if you are keen. I have a couple of true tomentosa that I grew from seed but are very small but plan to propagate off then in the future. Goumi I could possibly help you with in the future but mine is fairly small and growing slowly. Saskatoon I grow also, but again it might be a little while before I have spare ones available. | About the Author Joel15 BRIDGEWATER,5155,SA 18th August 2019 2:06pm #UserID: 14299 Posts: 66 View All Joel15's Edible Fruit Trees |
