Mahaleb Cherry Tree Planting Kit (Prunus mahaleb) by Meinwoody

In spring, the Mahaleb Cherry impresses with a sea of white, fragrant blossoms – and is one of the most valuable early spring food sources for bees. Even the endangered Scarce Swallowtail butterfly depends on its leaves. With this kit, you can plant it yourself: open, press in seeds, water. Done.

What's inside

  • 5–10 Mahaleb Cherry seeds (Prunus mahaleb)
  • Plastic-free plant pot made from hemp fiber composite – 100% compostable
  • Approx. 150 ml Terra Preta soil
  • Dimensions: 6 × 6 × 5 cm (L × W × H)
  • Grass paper box with planting instructions

Facts about the Mahaleb Cherry

The Mahaleb Cherry (Prunus mahaleb) is an ecological powerhouse – indispensable for bees, birds, butterflies, and as a grafting rootstock for cherries.

  • Bloom: Spring, numerous white & fragrant – first-class bee pasture
  • Two species of mining bees collect its pollen exclusively for their brood cells
  • Leaves: Food plant for caterpillars of the endangered Scarce Swallowtail butterfly
  • Fruits: sought-after winter food for blackbirds, thrushes & jays
  • Birds spread the seeds – natural dispersal in the ecosystem
  • Common grafting rootstock for cherries – horticulturally valuable
  • Growth height: up to 5 meters, fast-growing – as a solitary tree or hedge

How it works

Press seeds into the soil, water – and let them grow. After raising, you can plant the seedling directly with the compostable pot into the ground or a larger container. The pot decomposes without residue in 12–24 months. Your plant will root freely and undisturbed.

Germinating Tree Seeds

1. Place about 5 tree seeds in the freezer for 24 hours, then in lukewarm water for 24 hours to soften. Please note: do not apply this step for Moringa. Moringa cannot tolerate frost.

2. Place WOODY on a saucer. Press the softened seeds 1-2 cm deep into the soil. Then water until the soil is nicely moist.

3. Place WOODY in a bright spot. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate. Germination can take about four to twelve weeks.

4. Plant your tree when it is more than twice as tall as the pot is wide. Place the tree, including the compostable pot, into the soil.

Further planting and care tips can be found here.

* A saucer is not included in the delivery.
