Hi,

Do you know if St Lawrence;

1. ships to Canada
2. has a web page
3. sends catalogs

My mother lives in North Andover, MA and I always kid her that we have
her weather the day before.  It usually works out that way anyway.

I don't know about bush cherries, but cherry-plums can start being productive in only a couple of years.  They are both stone fruits so it may apply.

Later,
Tom

Same weather here.  I guess we do have similar climates.  :)

It looks like I may get a few flowers on one of the bush cherries I
planted last fall (Prunus fruticosa) from St. Lawrence Nurseries.  Do
you think it's okay to leave them on the plant?  It's a good size bush,
although maybe 1/5 of it seems to have been lost somewhere between
digging last fall and bud-break this spring.

By the way, while folks are plugging mail-order nurseries, I'd like to
put in a word for St. Lawrence.  They only do cold-weather stuff, but
their plants have been large, healthy, and well packaged, and arrive
early in the spring.  They also have all sorts of plants I haven't seen
elsewhere.  The blueberries I got from them last year (to replace some
that weren't doing well) are as large, and have nearly as many fruit
buds, as the ones I bought from Miller four years ago.
