Germination Requirements of Japanese Cherry

[Robert L.Allen]

I am in my last year over here and would like to leave behind
some cherry trees. The fruit is ripe now. I have some garden
space, but have forgotten details of germination. (I don't
speak Japanese well enough to ask over here)

I remember they need an acid bath (the gut of a bird), but
do they require scarification? Is a period of reduced temperature
require?

Could someone fill me in on the details?

Thanks.
