Dwarf Cherry Trees
The type of cherry tree you are buying will be dictated by the space and environment you have in which to plant. These days a dwarfing tree on Gisela stock is often chosen. An orchard setting will benefit from larger, vigorously growing trees but in a garden setting dwarfing roottsocks are more popular and easily managed. The situation, too, will influence the variety, warmer sunny spot is demanded by the delicious sweet eating cherry, but a Morello cherry tree will thrive with some shade and a colder environment so can be a very useful addition.
The Sweet Cherry Tree
For the best sweet cherry tree, if you are only planting one cherry fruit tree make sure it is a self fertile cherry variety that can yield well on it's own; when planting groups of trees then you can make your selection from a wider choice. The newer modern varieties tend to be self pollinating wherease older heritage types normally need to be grown with a pollinator. Have a look at our range where the qualities of each are described.
