Small seeds.
A growing story.

From one Japanese cherry pit to a tree in full bloom. Scroll to grow it.

01 · Soak

Free the pit.

Clean the fruit away and soak the pit. Log the start once; the notebook counts the hours and tells you when to plant.

0of 48 hours
02 · Plant

Exactly ½ inch down.

A real-size depth ruler on your screen. Pick a seed and its marker moves to the depth on its packet.

03 · Chill

A winter in the fridge.

Cherry pits need three months of cold before they sprout. The calendar counts from the day the bag goes in.

Day 1of 90
04 · Sprout

The first root.

Snap a photo, add a note if you like. The date is filled in for you, and every entry stays with its plant.

05 · Grow

Season by season, a tree.

Seed-grown cherries take years to reach flowering size. One record carries every season, from seedling to sapling to tree.

06 · Bloom

Then, one spring, blossom.

The whole story, from the day the packet arrived to the first flowers, in one notebook.

Inside the notebook

Built for the slow parts of growing.

Seeds that need weeks in the fridge, cuttings that take a month to root, bonsai trained over years. Rooted Stories keeps the dates so you don't have to.
