If it doesn’t reach that point, just add a bit more dirt to the mound underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Watering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water the tree when the top 2 inches of soil dries (a slow trickle with a garden hose for about 10 or 20 minutes is recommended so the water doesn’t bead away from the intended watering area). This could be about twice a week in the summer, or every three weeks in the fall. Watering depends on several factors such as the soil type, rainfall amounts, and temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Fertilizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flowering Cherries will not require fertilizer for the first two years. Heavy mulch around the base of the tree protects and nurtures the soil as well. When you are ready, fertilize the tree with nitrogen. Apply 1\/10 pound of actual nitrogen per year for each year of the tree’s age, with a maximum of 1 pound per year. Apply it once in the spring, or spread the nitrogen amount into 2 to 4 equal applications over the spring and summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4. Pruning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Removal of the current year’s old, faded flowers and fruit clusters will promote flower buds for the following season.
