October 20, 2012Q.Why Won’t My Bing Cherry Tree Give Fruit Anymore?
A friend's son trimed the trees for me and he cut the top straight off. Ever since it hasn't produced any fruit. Is there something I can do to it? Or is it too late? Please help me . . .
Thank You,

Certified ExpertA.It should recover. Topping a tree (which is what he did) is stressful to the tree and stress can cause it to stop fruiting while it focuses on recovering. It should recover, but it may take a year or two. Make sure that you are fertilizing regularly and that it is getting enough water. This will help reduce the stress and make recovery quicker.

October 30, 2012Q.Cherry Fruit Not Setting
I am growing cherries - fruit starts to set but then stops growing when it is really small. We have had lots of chill and there were heaps of blossom and bees?

Certified ExpertA.If it stops growing when it is small, it is likely a pollination issue. Most sweet cherry trees are not self pollinating, so you need two in order to get fruit. I would recommend getting another variety of cherry and planting it nearby. This should clear up the issue.

July 13, 2013Q.Snow Fountain Cherry Leaf Damage
I planted this tree last year. It bloomed beautifully in spring, but now has holes in leaves, some look eaten with browning and yellowing. It rained all of June here so I'm worried about shot hole disease. I also see earwigs on it and some other bugs at night. I'm not sure if I treat for a pest or a fungus. Both? Any advice would be appreciated.

July 13, 2013A.Neem oil would be a general purpose insecticide and fungicide, and it's organic. Follow package directions.

July 14, 2013Q.Cherry Tree in Trouble
I bought a cherry tree and it was doing great. Then I started to see a bunch of holes on the leaves and it started to look really bad. I don't see any insects or nothing on my tree. What do I do and what causes this to happen?

Why have my cherry trees died?

July 20, 2013A.Please expand your question with details. What kind of cherry, what did it 'do' before it died, how old was it, and so on. There are too many variables with no information to formulate an answer.

September 26, 2013Q.Patio Cherry Tree
How can I save my patio cherry tree. The leaves are curling and going brown then falling off. Not all are affected. Should I prune the worse affected branches?
- Answered by

September 28, 2013A.Since there is no USDA hardiness zone indicated, one would assume this is normal fall behavior. Cherry trees of all types have been bare in zone 6b for 3 weeks.
