Growing and Maintenance Tips:


Some cherry trees require cross-pollination: another cultivar of cherry in the area, flowering at the same time, in order to produce fruit. Tart cherries and sweet cherries cannot pollinate (OMAFRA) each other. Except for Stella, even the cherries that are listed as self-pollinating benefit from another variety nearby to increase production and fruit size.
