| Hi,
Can someone help me select a Cherry Tree which is:
*Self-fertile
*Grows to UNDER 20’ Wide
*Edible, sweet; not a pie cherry.
*Appropriate for USDA zone 6: New Jersey
*Will fruit in mostly shade
Thanks,
Steve

| Hey Steve, I have had good luck buying my cherry trees from Stark Bros. I do not know how well they will fruit in the shade though. Most fruit trees need the sun to produce the fruit. Some self fertile Cherry trees they have are Whitegold (which I have) which is a hybrid or Empire Francis and Stella, Blackgold-A hybrid of Stark Gold and Stella. They also have a 2in 1 grafted cherry which I have too, that has Stark Gold cherries and Van Sweet Cherries. All trees mentioned are available in either Dwarf or Semi-Dwarf sizes. Hope this helps, Christy |
