Can cherry trees be planted in the yard?

Cherry trees can be planted in the yard. The roots of cherry trees are very shallow, and most of them are rooted in the soil surface. Therefore, when choosing planting sites, sandy loam with soft soil, good air permeability and fertile soil should be selected. The most important thing is to ensure that the soil is not polluted. Only by providing a good environment for the growth of cherry trees can we produce green and pollution-free cherries.

The suitable place for cherry propagation should be the leeward side of sunny slope, with good drainage, no waterlogging, good soil fertility and avoiding repeated cropping. Neutral loam or sandy loam with irrigation conditions.
