Yes, I agree... You can probably get much larger trees at the nurseries. I planted 2 cherry trees in my garden last spring... a Montmorency and one called NorthStar. They both had loads of blooms and cherries last summer. I didn't really think they'd be able to fruit because they were new... in fact, I probably should have picked off the fruit instead of letting it grow. However, up here, the cold often kills fruit trees in the first winter, so I thought... "Heck, may as well get some cherries from the trees this year". I watered them almost every day and they did really well. The NorthStar is a dwarf tree and is about 5 feet tall. The Montmorency is some kind of semi-dwarf tree and was about 8 feet tall when I got it. Planted 2 new pear trees that had a couple of pears each last year too... Fun, eh?
