Thank you for this video, I live in Michigan, zone 6A. I have three of these trees that are just now in full bloom. They do great in our area!
That's great to hear. They are beautiful in full bloom. I'm glad I could help.
The lighting looks fabulous on them!! I also love them for the pollinators too!
Thanks!
I have young Yoshino growing in a pot. This information from this video is so helpful. Thank you!

Thank you for your infos. 🙏
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment.
Thank you so much for the tips and care for the Yoshinos. I have two of these beauties and I would like to know how far apart shall I plant them.
I think these were planted in 15 ft centers to create a mass. If you don't want them touching at maturity I would put them at least 25 ft apart.
Can you bonsai these type of trees? I got a sapling from a festival.
Potentially? Bonsai is a science and art in and of itself. Technically you can bonsai anything. It is a topic I am not well versed on and feel uncomfortable answering questions about.
Hello, Thank you for the video. I live in Kansas City Missouri (zone 6) I planted a weeping yoshino cherry tree last spring. The tree is sprouting leaves like crazy! The problem is it appears that it is grafted and is not growing up but has many weeping limbs that are laying on the ground and continuing to grow outward not upward. I think I need to prune it, so that the energy goes towards growing taller not wider. It is very full. Thank you in advance for your guidance🙏
It sounds like they should have used what is known as a "high graft". This is where the scion is attached to the rootstock several feet above the base. You can prune to keep the limbs off the ground but I am not sure how much this will encourage vertical growth.
@@Dr.Warrenthank you for your help and quick response.
I bought one of this because I always wanted a cherry blossom tree. Kinda impossible here in South Florida. We're I got it it say it can hold the heat of the South. I was skeptical but I got it anyway. It was a Stick when I got it. Now is all green and it bloomed a little be. Not sure how long will it last now that spring is up and eventually summer. But they are gorgeous.
Good luck with the south Florida heat. Let us know how it does!
Will you please make a video on young 7 foot yoshino tree? It's so hard to find information on young Yoshino trees 😣
I will put it on the list for sure.
I just planted 4 of these trees, how often should I water the newly planted trees? Thanks much and this video was great!
Jeff I would saturate every other day and pull back slowly to twice a week,etc. once established you shouldn't have to water at all unless you have a drought.
I have a young tree that was bare root planted in the fall and has grown beautifully. However, the branches are really long now. Should I prune them at all to get them to shoot new branches?
It will definitely help it fill out.
I live in North Carolina and I am trying to save my Yoshino Cherry tree. Half the tree has died out and the other half has some dead limbs coming on however there is new growth at the bottom with sprouts I have hired someone to trim the tree but not sure if this is a good idea. I am desperately trying to save the tree it is full grown and been established for 20 years. I was thinking this might be a canker worm problem. Not sure. I wanted to see if you had any suggestions. Thanks Susan
The shoots coming from the root may not even be yoshino. It could be from rootstock if the tree is grafted. It could be a canker like cytospora.
Ok so we had a YC planted about 3 weeks ago and it lost all of its leaves same week - is this because the tree is in shock? What should we do? I think maybe 2 branches has green on it. I’m in Zone 7 - TN.
Perhaps. Did they come home in the back of a truck not covered up?
After 7 years I have 6 of these trees first year they had dark cherries on them and the birds are fighting over them. But 7 years wow
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing
Hi! I planted this in my yard really small in memory of my pup. I planted a perennial bed around it and next to it. Limelight hydrangeas and salvias and sun other full sun perennials like Shasta daisies and catmint etc. I’m concerned if it grows taller and bigger and shade my other plants. Do you think I should move it? Thank you.
It’s about 3 yrs old now
You can limb up the canopy. If you elect to move it wait until it is completely dormant.
