#ProPlantTips for Care
Flowering Cherry trees are very easy to grow! Simply provide a location in your yard with full sun for the most blooms and in a very well-drained location rich with organic matter. Cherry trees appreciate regular moisture and a 3-4 inch thick layer of arborist mulch for best results. Prune these deciduous flowering ornamentals immediately after the blooms fade so as not to miss out on a single bloom next spring.
- Full Sun For The Most Blooms
- Regular Moisture Needs
- Enriched Well-Drained Soils
- Appreciates Mulch
- Prune Right After Flowers Fade
