Gardeners often encounter a situation where cherry trees do not produce fruit after abundant flowering.

At the same time, externally the trees look quite strong and healthy.

In most cases, attempts to solve this problem prove unsuccessful.

Even super-nutritious supplements don't help.

After conducting a series of studies, experts found that the lack of fruiting in cherries may be due to the following factors.

The cultivated variety is self-sterile

That is, when pollinated with pollen from one’s own variety, fertilization does not occur.

These trees need neighbors of other species.

There are no pollinating insects

Prolonged rains and abnormally low air temperatures during flowering hinder the flight of bees.

To attract them to the garden, you need to spray the crowns of trees with sweet water.

The possibility of diseases should not be ruled out. For example, fruits on cherries do not form with coccomycosis and monilial burn.
