QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • Will either Almaden or Hartland be able to cross-pollinate with Kristin?

    Hartland would be a fine choice for cross pollination.

  • Will these pollinate well with Black Gold cherries?

    Yes, they should work together just fine.

  • will Romeo or Juliet cross pollinate with Kristin?

    No, Romeo and Juliet are Prunus cerasus hybrids and Kristen is a Prunus avium. They do not flower at the same time.

  • Will Kristin cross pollinate with Bing?

    Yes it will pollinate Bing just fine.

  • Will it pollinate with meteor cherry

    Probably not. Kristin Cherry is a Prunus avium and Meteor is a Prunun cerasus and they will not likely bloom at the same time.

vigorous tree , hopeful for the outcome

My tree has been in the ground only a short time, but it is leafed out and growing vigorously. I hope the cherries will be as luscious as advertised, but I don't expect fruit for a few years. So, it's a little early to tell if this was a good choice. Like all the other fruit trees in my yard (and previous gardens), I prune according to Ann Ralph's Grow A Little Fruit Tree.
