Default Growing cherries

Replace 'likely' with 'certain'

Almost certainly true. What we did with our Stella cherry in 2002 was to
wait until the fruits were beginning to form up after flowering, then we
hung CDs [must be AOL!] among the branches. We actually picked a
reasonable crop of very nice cherries that year. In 2003, the tree
flowered well but almost no fruits formed, so even the birds didn't get
any. Now I am wondering if the AOL discs may have carried a virus? ;-)
