Two years ago, I planted the seed from my wife's canning of peaches.
One seed grew and made it through its first winter. Now, in 2006, it is
still growing; it didn't winterkill above the snow-line. This should be
encouragement for all of you fruit explorers to try something similar with
the fruit of your choice. I've been planting peach seed for many, many
years and it pays off now and then.
