How to Plant Cherry Trees
Similar to many of our fruit varieties, Cherry Trees are simple to plant and maintain, especially since we’ve grown and cared for them long before they arrive at your door. Basically, planting our Cherry Trees means you’ll get fresh, healthful fruit in the most effortless, cost-effective way.How to Grow Cherry Trees
• When? Plant your Cherry Trees during late fall or early spring, when the ground has a lot of moisture.• Where? Keep in mind that Cherry Trees love sun and good air circulation, so they should be planted away from buildings or other trees and in a location that is sunny.
• How? Place your Cherry Tree in a hole big enough to accommodate the entire root ball, pack the soil or backfill the soil tightly and water. It’s that easy.
Because we’ve grafted your tree for best results, you can expect consistency and ease from your Cherry Tree. And we’ve worked hard to ensure your Cherry Tree thrives at our nursery…and beyond. You’ll get the same great-tasting fruit and no-hassle consistency, season after season.
How to Care for Cherry Trees
It’s simple – we follow the four Ps: Planting, Pruning, Pollination, and Picking.
• Planting: After you’ve chosen a sunny, well-drained area, place your Cherry Tree in a hole big enough to accommodate its entire root system (two or three times as wide as the root ball and just as deep), pack the soil tightly and water. Water your tree thoroughly once it’s established to ensure the best results.
• Pruning: Cherry Trees should usually be pruned during dormancy in the winter, but some varieties (such as the Sweet Fruiting Cherry Tree) should be pruned in late summer. Follow specific pruning directions for your tree type.
• Pollination: Most of our Cherry Trees are self-fertile; however, purchasing two or more trees ensures a dramatically-increased crop and more variety, whether your Cherry Tree is self-fertile or needs a pollinator.
• Picking: Before cherries are ready for harvest, clusters of white or pink blossoms will emerge in the spring. Once fruit emerges, wait to harvest until the fruit is firm and fully colored. Sour cherries will come off the stem when they’re ripe, while sweet cherries must be tasted to determine maturity.
