Can cherries be grown in the south?

1. Is it possible?

Cherries can be grown in the southern region, but you must choose good varieties. You can grow black cherries, red concubine cherries, or yellow lantern cherries. Some of the varieties that can be seen on a daily basis are mostly grown in the north. The rainfall in the southern region is relatively high, which can easily cause cherries to crack. Moreover, the fruits may taste sour, be small in size, or fall off.

2. Planting precautions

1. Soil: Under normal circumstances, the soil in the south is relatively sticky, and it is difficult for planted cherries to grow fibrous roots. It is also possible that the soil will become compacted, so you need to loosen the soil and add some fertilizer when planting.

2. Rain shelter: If you do not pay attention to rain shelter when planting in the south, it will not only affect the fruit but also cause many diseases and pests. During the rainy season, measures should be taken in advance and appropriate sun protection should be provided.

3. Drainage: Its roots cannot grow in soil with too much water, so the drainage ditch should be dug in advance so that the excess water can be drained out as soon as possible.
