4. Caring for Seedlings
Place the pots in a sunny location where they can get at least six hours of sunlight daily. Keep the soil consistently moist but be careful not to overwater. Once the seedlings sprout and grow a few inches tall, they can be gradually acclimated to outdoor conditions if you started them indoors.
5. Transplanting
When your cherry seedlings are strong enough, and the outdoor temperatures are stable, you can transplant them into your garden. Choose a sunny spot with good drainage and enough space for the trees to mature.
6. Ongoing Care
Cherry trees require regular watering, especially during dry spells, and benefit from annual pruning to maintain their shape and health. Fertilize them in spring with a balanced fertilizer to encourage growth.
Conclusion
Growing cherry trees from seed is a delightful project that can yield beautiful blooms and delicious fruit. With patience and care, you’ll be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor and the shade of your cherry trees for years to come!
