Thank you so much.

What I did was put the whole peach pit in a baggie that was stuffed full of damp not wet sphagnum moss. I put it in the fridge (where the "normal" person would keep their butter) from September until March. I just happened to look inside the bag to see if anything was happening, and sure enough, there was (don't know the correct name for it) a nice white long root.
I popped the whole thing into a 6 inch pot filled with soil, covered it with a gallon bag, put it in a bright (not sunny) window and let it grow. As soon as I saw green, I opened the bag a little, and hardened it off.
I actually put it into the ground that fall (1 year after planting) It grew so fast.. It was well over 1 foot by fall. I covered it completely with mulch that winter, and hoped (but didn't stress, thinking it wont be a great eating peach anyway). 2 years later, it's about 3 feet tall, and will get pruned correctly this winter. I don't know what I will get if it decides to fruit, but I am now none the less hopeful. :o)
