Grow-your-own-ability
Fancy growing your own? This is how easy we think it is out of 5 seeds. The more seeds, the easier it could be to pick them from your own garden!
Care Tips
There are 2 main types of cherries, sweet and acid. Sweet cherries are the ones that you can pick and eat directly from the tree, whilst acid cherries need to be cooked (preferably into lovely pies). Cherry trees are best planted in winter between November and February when the trees are dormant. They are best planted in a warm, sheltered frost free position in well-drained deep soil.
