Sweet Cherry Trees
- Trees must be planted in well drained soil
- 6 hours of sunlight Full sun preferred
- Stake all trees for the first 2 years
- Tree guards should be used
- Plant at least 2 Different apples trees for Cross Pollination
We categorize our apple trees into four sizes: Maiden, Field Ready, Hand Select, and (3 or 5) Gallon Container depending on the size of the tree. Maiden trees are usually 2 years old and are branchless. These are also called whips and will bear in 2-3 years. A Field Ready tree is 2-3 years old and might have some lateral branching, be thicker above the graft, and will bear in 1-2 years. The Hand Select trees are only about 20% of trees we have and are 3 year old trees, 6-9' tall and can be heavily branched. You can expect fruiting on a Hand Select tree in about a year.
