We have to be honest and say that growing and harvesting Cherries takes a special kind of horticultural hero. It is almost impossible to beat the birds to your delicious crop unless you enclose the tree in some kind of protective covering.   Cherries are hapiest in cool climate areas that have a dry spring and summer. As you can imagine the fruit splits very easily if pelted with heavy rain. Therefore choose your planting position well. It should be a hot and sunny spot, hopefully out of reach of harsh frost and strong wind. The tree itself is not frost tender however heavy frost can damage emerging blossom. Good drainage is essential. Cherries quite like the addition of a little lime if your soil tends to be on the acidic side.
