Hello
Again Shipmates; Does anybody have any experience with Sweet Cherries
Stella /
Richard,
For some reason in the early 1980's I bought a Stella standard cherry
tree from Stark's. The tree grew well, to about 20' tall, flowered
well, and becoming into the shade of nearby pecans and a black walnut,
bore fruit that appeared perfect without spraying. Unfortunately
I cannot tell you what it tasted like, because the fruit was always out
of reach. The tree eventually died from shading by other trees and
its log is still laying there rotting.
