GERMINATION 98% Packed for 2024

The Myrobalan Plum, scientifically known as Prunus cerasifera, is a species of plum tree native to Southeast Europe and Western Asia. It is widely cultivated for its attractive flowers, fruits, and as an ornamental plant.

The tree can grow to be about 15-30 feet tall and wide, depending on the variety and growing conditions. The leaves of Prunus cerasifera are simple, ovate to elliptical, with a finely serrated margin. They are typically a shiny green, though some cultivars have purple or red foliage. The tree is known for its early spring bloom, often before the leaves fully emerge. The flowers are small, with five petals, and range in color from white to pink. They are attractive to bees and other pollinators.

The fruit of the Myrobalan Plum is a small drupe, similar in appearance to a cherry but with a plum flavor. The skin can be yellow to red, and the flesh is usually yellow and juicy. The fruit is edible and can be used in jams, jellies, and other culinary applications.

Prunus cerasifera prefers well-drained soil but is quite adaptable to various soil types, including clay, loam, and sand.  Full sun is ideal for the best growth and fruit production, though the tree can tolerate partial shade. Regular watering is important, especially for young trees. Once established, the tree is relatively drought-tolerant. Pruning is recommended to maintain shape, remove any dead or diseased wood, and encourage fruiting.

Several cultivars of Prunus cerasifera are popular in horticulture. The Cherry plum is a little-known plum species (at least in this country) with delicious edible fruit that is just starting to catch on here in the US. As with other members of the Prunus genus, there's a great deal of diversity to this species. The fruit is edible and can be used in a variety of culinary applications, though it is not as commonly consumed as other plum species. They can be found in a range of colors, sizes, and flavors. Sweet-when-ripe types are eaten fresh (or made into jams, etc), while sour-when-ripe types are used for sauces, soups, pickles, etc.

With its beautiful spring blossoms and attractive foliage, Prunus cerasifera is widely used in landscaping and garden design. The flowers provide an early source of nectar for pollinators, while the fruit can attract birds and other wildlife. Overall, Prunus cerasifera is a versatile tree that can add beauty and interest to landscapes, along with providing ecological benefits and potential culinary uses.

GROWING TIPS: The Experimental Farm Network recommends the following for best results for starting your Myrobalan Plum seeds. Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours then warm-moist stratify for 30-60, days followed by 120 days of cold-moist stratification in the fridge. Keep at room temperature after treatment to sprout. We recommend using a good potting mix in gallon ziplock bags, so you can keep an eye on them but also protect them from being eaten by rodents. Nursing the young trees in a pot for the first couple years is wise, before planting out in a full-sun location and protecting the tree from predation by deer, rabbits, and other critters.

Why are these books so hard to find in libraries and bookstores??!
Format: Paperback
Bought nearly the whole book series after reading the reviews. My 8 and 10 year old boys love these books. My 10 year old read the first book on his way to and from soccer practice. He couldn't put it down and kept telling me what he read. My boys have read all the "Magic Treehouse", "I Survived" and some "I Escaped" books, as well as "Big Nate", "Diary of a Wimpy Kid", etc. BUT these battle books are the best. They really teach about the history of the wars which have shaped our modern times. WHY are these books so hard to find in libraries and bookstores... at least in Maryland? Maybe because "Great Battles for Boys" reeks of toxic masculinity? I really wonder. In any case, great books especially if you want your boys to read serious, informative books that are interesting and entertaining.

Great for boys AND MOMS
Format: Paperback
Saw an ad for the series online and wanted to buy just one book to try. Received with 2 day Prime. Book was new. So, not only does this book have an incredible, intriguing story that sucked in my 10 year old who hates reading and struggles to read, it had me at Hello. The beginning of the book is filled with recipes! Was totally not expecting that! So for this Momma, under promise-over deliver was the theme here. Purchasing the rest of the books! Also look online for worksheets that parents have put together to go along with these books. Totally worth it. Happy Reading! AND Cooking!

Great reads for all levels
Format: Paperback
I bought 2 for a 6th grade boy I tutor. He has a beginning interest in history. He's been 'eating' these books up! These are well written, but not complex to turn a young reader off. There are many alternative resources to listed to dive into if a particular person or event sparks interest with the reader. There is appropriate vocabulary with explanations on some- others open a chance for my student & I to have a deeper discussion to clarify meaning & connect information.

Great book for an (almost) 11 year old to learn about WW2
Format: Paperback
My (almost) 11 year old says he enjoyed this book because it gives specific details and has pictures of what was going on making it easy to understand what was happening. The only thing he’d change was that the pictures weren’t in color (lol)!
