5-in-1 Cherry Tree Fast Growing Trees

5 Kinds of Cherries From a Single Tree

Pick Cherries for Months, Not Weeks
Five popular types of cherries are grafted into one tree. Early-growth varieties are combined with an assortment of late-growth types of cherries for an extended growing season. Rather than receiving your bounty of cherries all at once, you can enjoy fresh cherries at their peak of ripeness for months.

While we can’t guarantee the Cherry varieties you’ll get on this tree, you will get five varieties of delicious, home-grown fruit to enjoy for years to come!

Takes Very Little Space
These compact trees grow to about 15 feet, but most people prune them back to a shorter stature. They’ll thrive wherever they’re planted – in small yards – and even in containers. Bred to be prolific fruiters…you will enjoy bushels of sweet delicious cherries from even the smallest tree. Continuously pruned branches give you more cherries at safe picking height. These thicker branches can mean up to twice the fruit as a normal tree.

Simply Plant and Pick
Cherries are one of the easiest fruit trees to grow. Your 5-in-1 Cherry is self-pollinating, so you don’t need a second tree.

Large Trees that Produce the First Season
You get a bearing age tree that is several years old. The five popular varieties were carefully selected to grow well together. Third generation fruit tree growers have perfected this tree over the decades.

Planting & Care

The multi-grafted cherry is a unique tree that gives you several varieties of cherries with just one tree, this multiple graft cherry (Prunus avium sp.) is a pleasure to watch bloom and fruit. Growing in USDA zones 5-8, they can tolerate cold down to -10 degrees and do not require a lot of chill hours, so they can also grow in the south and still produce fruit. This semi-dwarf fruit tree does not take up a lot of space in your landscape while still providing you with multiple varieties of cherries. Only reaching 15-20 feet tall and 10 feet wide, it’s a great way to have several varieties of cherry without having to have an orchard to do so. The multi-grafted cherry does not require a pollinator as the different grafts naturally cross-pollinate with one another!

Location: Choose a sunny spot that will give your cherry tree a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Although it will thrive in almost any kind of soil, avoid locations where the soil will remain soggy for prolonged lengths of time.

Planting Instructions:
1) Dig a hole that is as deep as the root ball and three times as wide.
2) Place the roots in the hole and fill the hole about half-way with soil, tamp to remove air pockets then fill the hole completely.
3) Water to secure the tree and remove any additional air pockets in the soil.
4) Add more soil if necessary after settling.
5) Spread a layer of mulch over the soil around your cherry tree to help keep the soil moist, encourage healthy growth and protect your tree against competing growth.

Watering: During the growing season, if your tree receives at least an inch of rain every 10 days then no additional irrigation is necessary. If the season is hot and dry then you may need to provide some additional water. The best way to water is by using a slow trickling garden hose left at the base of the tree. This will allow the water to penetrate the soil more deeply and prevent it from running off over the soil surface. Make sure the ground is fully moisturized all around the root system. Mulching will greatly assist in maintaining soil moisture.

Pruning: A year after planting your cherry tree, prune your tree in the late to end of winter while dormant. Shape the tree to encourage horizontal branch growth with space between branches. Prune once a year as necessary to remove weak, drooping branches. These are usually poor fruit-bearing branches and removing them will encourage positive air flow and healthy growth. Also, make sure light can penetrate the center of the canopy.

Fertilization: Good, nutrient-rich soil should only require the addition of nitrogen. Fertilize in the spring and midsummer using nitrogen fertilizer twice annually applying 2 weeks after planting and 4 weeks after the first application. Use a complete fertilizer such as 10-10-10 and apply at the rate of 0.05 pounds of actual nitrogen per dose. Fertilizer application ratios vary upon the formulation so be sure to follow package directions. When applying, be sure fertilizer is 6 to 8 inches away from the trunk around the tree to prevent the roots from burning. Organic fertilizers such as manure or blood meal are highly discouraged as their nitrogen levels cannot be measured. Keep in mind that cherry trees require high levels of nitrogen early in the season and lower levels during the late summer.
