I live in the desert Southwest, on a mountain with rocky ground, so I plant in containers. Because of the intense heat here, I have really 3 growing seasons-Early Sping to Summer, Fall and Winter in the greenhouse. What I have to do is pick cherries and smaller varieties/earlies in the spring/summer-I have found anything over 1 lb just wont get it done. In the fall I plant earlies, and in the greenhouse, I plant dwarves and one or two other types-this winter I am growing Red Brandywine and Sicilian Plum.
