Crataegus succulenta

General Fruit Growing
#1

Hi Everyone

I want to add crataegus succulenta to my orchard. Aka fleshy hawthorn. I haven’t been able to find any plants. I bought some seeds but so far none have germinated. Anyone familiar with this plant? Maybe someone here is growing them?

Unfamiliar with that one, but IIRC, hawthorn has a ‘double dormancy’ deal…your seeds may not germinate until the second year.
