Before planting, stratify seeds in a moist medium in the refrigerator for 8-12 weeks. Sow seeds outdoors in fall or start indoors in late winter. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep in well-draining soil. Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination can be slow and uneven, so patience is key.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce seedlings have several sets of true leaves, transplant them to a sunny location with good air circulation. Water young trees regularly during dry periods. Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring. Prune to maintain shape and remove dead or crossing branches. With proper care, your Lapins Cherry tree will grow into a beautiful and productive addition to your garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e10 Lapins Cherry Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67836009382198,"sku":"FOLIA2-1717","price":42.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7141280405_s8ku.jpg?v=1793097179","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/lapins-cherry-seeds-sweet-dark-red-fruit-tree-10-seeds-for-planting","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
