Anyone growing blackthorn fruit aka sloe?

I have started a sloe from hobby seeds. Have some more seeds from Sheffield in stratification right now. If you are interested, you or I can make an order and we could split cost and 50 seeds each. I would request two stolens from Ken so we could each get one. This is a species I’m trying my darndest to get, but I don’t want to get a hundred seeds either.

I bought a few cuttings from etsy but not sure if any of them really made it, a couple maybe started to root but I abandoned them in the dirt so hopefully maybe one survived. But I also had one whole plant imported from Italy :smiley: Didn’t have enough time to start growing and has been out in the Wisconsin weather, but as far as I can tell it’s still alive. I’ll update this spring.

Maybe eventually if the thing lives and starts growing really good I’ll root some cuttings from it myself and have them available for people to buy :smiley:
