"To start a cherry tree from a pit, remove the pit from the fruit and clean off any remaining flesh. Don't try and remove the hard part of the shell that surrounds the pit. Cherry pits need a chilling period before germinating. To mimic the necessary winter-like conditions, place the pit in a plastic bag filled with moist vermiculite or peat moss (or damp paper towels) and store the bag in the refrigerator for about 10 weeks. Check the moisture level in the bag now and then and don't let the pit dry out. After about 10 weeks of chilling the pit is ready to be planted. You can start it in a pot indoors or plant it outside. Plant seeds about 1/2 inch deep in nutrient-rich well-drained soil with exposure to full sun. You should expect to see growth in after a few weeks. If our planting outdoors during cold weather, the seedling may just stay chilled and resume growth the following spring. After planting, you can expect to see mature fruit after 7 to 10 years."

Can you propagate bush cherries from a pit?

A cherry pit is a seed. The pit or seed of any fruit is exactly how a new bush or tree is grown. A cherry pit can be planted to grow a cherry tree. It'll take a long time, though. A 5-year-old sapling isn't very big. You can plant it and try, but it'll be a few years before a cherry tree will produce cherries.

How can cherrys grow on cherry trees?

Cherries are the seed distribution system for the cherry tree, just as acorns are for the oak tree or apples are for the apple tree. The cherries grow, then birds an mammals eat them. When the creature drops a cherry or excretes the seed, a new cherry tree is planted. If the place the seed is dropped is suitable for the tree to grow, it will grow and eventually produce more cherries.
