Plant Care Information
Top Tips
Care Information
- Apply a slow-release fertiliser such as blood fish and bone in early spring, and mulch to retain moisture.
- Drape netting over cherry trees to protect the fruit from birds.
- Water regularly, and don't let the soil dry out if planted in pots.
- Stone fruit should not be pruned during winter, to minimise the risk of infection - early summer is the ideal time. Established trees don't require radical pruning, just take off any diseased, dying and damaged branches, (the three Ds). Look at the overall shape and aim for an open structure of branches and remove any that cross over so they don't damage each other.
- Hang wasp traps in trees and harvest crops as soon as they ripen. Avoid leaving windfalls or over-ripe fruit on the ground.
- Don't forget the tree guards as rabbits can strip the bark overnight.
