Rules for caring for felt cherries

• Do not plant felt cherry in the shade. It is a fairly light-loving plant, but can only sometimes tolerate partial shade. But the sun is more preferable for her.
• This type of cherry does not like high soil moisture. There is no need to place it in places with high groundwater levels; it is advisable to plant bushes on hills and not in lowlands.
• When planting, keep in mind that it is advisable to have at least two plants for successful pollination, but felt cherry grows well at a density of one plant per 1.5 square meters. You can plant them in rows.
• When caring for felt cherries, do not forget about loosening, weeding and fertilizing by applying mineral fertilizers.
• Due to the fact that the felt cherry quickly begins to bear fruit, the gardener needs to form a powerful bush with strong central branches. Don't forget to form a bush!
• And, of course, do not forget to annually cut out dried and weak branches. The resulting wounds can be traditionally covered with garden varnish.
