I had a cherry blossom tree in my garden which was nearly dead 10 years ago and it came back to life with care. I Planted a cherry tree around 6 years ago In the garden. This year the blossom tree began to flower and I then noticed that The back part of the blossom tree was still bare. Within the week I then noticed it day white flowers instead of pink and then I looked closer to realise there was a lower branch of the tree which looks like it’s a cherry tree branch on a blossom tree and don’t know how that happened. Could you shed some light on how it could be like this as we have done noting but water the trees. I look forward to hearing from you regards Suzanne
Yes, that is a sucker from below the graft point. What fruit it will bear may not be edible, or palatable.
I would remove it, as it may sap valuable nutrients from your tree. This can lead to graft failure, or the killing off of the scion, or top of the tree.

Hello, we just planted our north star cherry tree last week. it came in a burlap bag. They told us to plant the tree with the bag still around it. We used organic garden soil and dug a hole twice the size of the base and just as high. Just a few days later, all of the leaves are sad and the cherries that were on it wilted. It has only been a week. Is it dying? what can we do to save it? Is this normal for a newly planted tree?
It is probably in transplant shock. Also, when planting a tree, you normally backfill with the soil that came out of the hole. You don't need to buy special soil or amendments. The reason for that is so the roots will fan out into the soil rather than staying in the "good" soil and circling about. If the outer soil is clayey, it can also cause the roots to become trapped and water to pool.
Your cherry tree needs to be kept well watered while recovering, but not saturated. North Star cherry trees do not like wet feet. Here is info on watering your newly planted tree:

This is only affecting one branch. It looks like the leaves are actually changing shape (they are much larger than other leaves and you can see leaves undergoing the change). The affected leaves are more yellow, larger in size and brown around the edges.
It looks like new growth attempting to come out, but it is heavily infected. This is usually caused by wet soils, or soil that has not had a chance to dry out between watering.
You will need to treat with fungicides and correct watering habits if possible.

There is a few splits along the trunk .
There are many issues and diseases that cause these symptoms. Generally, as Cherry trees age they will start to lose vigor. They may even start the process of dying after about 15 years, or so. Between 15 and 20 years will be an expected lifespan for a flowering cherry, though they can live longer.
If you believe that the trees are reaching their life's end, then this is likely the cause- Natural senescence.

? Zone: Brampton, on, Canada Hello Sir, I want to apply organic fertilizer to an established Cherry tree. Can you please recommend the ingredients needed and also the ratio of each item, in order to get bigger and more plentiful produce? What is the correct method of application; Should I mix it with soil?
There are a number of ways to organically fertilize your tree and a number of products available. You can work yard clippings or manure into the surrounding soil, being cautious not to harm the roots. If you need an organic application ready made, you should visit your local nursery or talk to your county extension service for more information. Here's a helpful article:
