Cherries

Grafted Stock • Sweet & Sour Varieties • Ornamental Beauty

Cherries (Prunus) are among the most coveted fruits in any home orchard, providing a herald of summer with their beautiful blossoms and decadent, juicy fruit. Whether you prefer the deep, sugary sweetness of a Bing-style cherry or the sharp, culinary intensity of a pie cherry, these trees offer a unique combination of aesthetic grace and unparalleled harvest rewards.

Growing cherries successfully requires careful attention to site selection, specifically regarding soil drainage and chill hours, but the long-term yield of a healthy, established tree is truly incomparable. Our grafted saplings are selected for vigor and disease resistance, helping you establish a productive and beautiful orchard. From early-season treats to late-harvest mainstays, these trees are a cherished investment for any garden.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a pollinator?

Most sweet cherry varieties are self-sterile, meaning you will need to plant at least two different, compatible varieties to ensure successful cross-pollination. Sour (tart) cherries, however, are typically self-fertile.

How do I manage the birds?

Birds are famously fond of cherries. Using high-quality bird netting placed over the tree once the fruit begins to change color is the most effective way to secure your harvest.

What are the soil requirements?

Cherries are intolerant of "wet feet." They require deep, well-draining soil. If your ground is heavy clay or stays waterlogged, they will not thrive; consider raised mounds or selecting a different planting site.

When do I prune?

Prune in late winter while the tree is dormant. Focus on removing any dead, diseased, or crossing branches to improve air circulation and sunlight penetration, which helps prevent fungal issues.
