Cherries 
Our cherry trees are budded on Mahaleb cherry stocks, which do not sprout from the 
roots. Care must be taken in planting that the trees are not planted toe deep; one inch 
deeper than were budded is deep enough: should they be planted deeper than this the 
tree will be liable to throw out roots above where budded, and these roots, if broken, will 
throw up sprouts or suckers. 
Plant trees twenty feet apart, keep the main leaders headed back the first two or three 
years after transplanting. By so doing you will have fine bushy tops near the ground, 
which will be of great advantage in picking the fruit. 
Sour Varieties: Early Richmond, Montmorency and English Morello.
