Keep them at least 25 feet away from structures for the best air flow. Why not use a row of them along your driveway, if you have a sunny spot?
You'll create a wonderful legacy with fruiting trees. Orchards have been enjoyed for millenia, and people are rediscovering the joys of these valuable trees.
#ProPlantTips for Care
Plant Sweet Cherry trees in full sun with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. They need well-drained soil and a planting site with good air circulation, too.
Carefully select a planting site that gets morning sun for Corum to keep the foliage dry. Avoid the use of overhead watering. Drip irrigation is best to keep your plants healthy.
Plant 12 feet apart from pollination partners. These trees grow into an attractive shape, and can be allowed to grow to full height and spread.
You can also choose to prune fruiting trees in late summer to keep them under 10 feet tall. Decide on the height and spread you want, and tip prune to keep them at that size.
Add Corum Sweet Cherry tree from Nature Hills to your backyard orchard or edible landscape this season!
