I have a pair of dwarf cherry trees. Both leaf out fine in the spring
but one looses it's leaves shortly thereafter. The other seems pretty
well but I have noticed a branch or 2 starting to do the same thing as
the other tree. Is there a cure for this? I don't see any other
problems on the surface.
Thanks,
Tim

Good day Tim, sounds like you may have leaf spot. Check out this page:
http://pep.wsu.edu/hortsense/scripts/query/displayProblem.asp?tableName=plant&problemID@&categoryID=3
Sorry for the huge url. You can go to the home page and search out the
other pages on cherry issues. Go here to do that:
http://pep.wsu.edu/hortsense/
Go to tree fruits > cherry . This site has good infomation.... too bad
they used frames and bookmarking is a bit hard.
Good luck.

Where do you live and did you get the trees from one of those places
like WalMart. Now contact the Extension Office in your area.

I live in Minnesota, got the cherry trees at a nursery going out of
busniess auction. What extension office in my area? The U of M will
never answer the phone.
Thanks,
Tim

I don't know about yours, but most towns will have a County Extension Office
somewhere. If you don't find it, contact some from the fair board and ask
how you get in touch with a representative of U of M. I live in a town of
4500 now, and moved here from one in Arkansas that had 3500 population.
Both have a County Extension Office.
