Buy a yellow fruited cherry. Fools the birds every time.
Don't know if you have them there, but we have Peach tree borers here. They
will kill peach trees and sweet cherry trees. They haven't seemed to bother
tart cherry trees, or at least not as quickley.

Good luck. Dwayne

I live close to the clyde valley soft growing area and spring flowering
cherry trees do exceptionally well in my local area , but I have seen
various cherry varieties intended for fruit in my local Homebase -- what
are the pit falls ?
