Re: Chokeberry


I'm looking for any information in regard to choke cherry, in particular
sub-species.  I have located what my uncle thinks to be a Golden Choke
Cherry.  The thinking is that it may be a unique genetic sub-species.

Shrub form is the same as the purple fruiting form, habitat.....etc.

I have growing several dozen plants from seed which are now in their
3rd growing season and hope to see them flower and set fruit next year
(1999).  I have talked to several people "in the know" with regard to
Choke Cherry and all have said "NO", and have never seen or heard
about the existence of a gold fruited Choke Cherry species.

The other school of thought is that these particular Choke Cherries set a
golden fruit purely due to environmental conditions.

Some have said that "IF" it is a genetic species or sub-species, patent it.

Any help here?
