Prunus cerasus is represented here by seed germination notes rather than fruit, origin, or garden performance details. A University of Minnesota source reports that scarifying or removing the endocarp can improve germination percentage and speed for Prunus cerasus [S1].
The same source cites Kristiansen and Jenson (2009) as comparative evidence that Prunus cerasus seeds germinated at a higher percentage when the endocarp was removed, suggesting the endocarp can be a meaningful dormancy barrier [S1]. Prunus cerasus is also described as needing a longer cold stratification period, roughly 90 to 150 days [S1].
Summary source basis
This summary currently draws chiefly from Minnesota #1695.
