#When can I prune a weeping cherry tree
Description: Gary L Heilig, retired Horticulture Educator for Michigan State University Extension discusses how to prune a young weeping cherry
It is April 7th in Ohio and our three-year-old ornamental cherry tree looks like it needs some attention. Your tutorial is excellent! It's straight to the point unlike so many of the other videos. You are very specific. You understand how reluctant amateurs are to cut anything off because we don't want to hurt the tree. Thank you.
Be strong! You can do it, and thanks for watching. Of course ornamental trees do not require as much pruning as fruit producing trees.
"Kinda hurts your feelings" I know how you feel!
Just bought one of these for our garden. Thanks for the info!
Thank you for watching. Good luck with the plant.
She looks a beautiful tree and appreciate your skills, a very nice video with clarity.
Thanks
Best video example I found!
I just planted 1 last fall . Waiting to see how looks in April. Thank you for your help.
Love the birds chirping and the wind in the background. 😊
One of the great things about gardening and yardwork is that we slow down and can enjoy the nature will often miss. Thank you for visiting the channel.
You’re awesome sir thank u. From chicago
Thank you. Very helpful.
Thank you, Sir. In all these years I have never done a weeping tree of any size or spp.
For years I drove by a mature weeping willow daily. I used to ask myself what I would do with that tree. And any time they pruned it, which wasn't much, I would check it out.
So this video has been instructive. And you reminded me of the basic pruning rules that still apply.
Thus this ramble is just an effort to express appreciation.
Ramble on. I actually read every comment. Thanks for watching.
Truth Bomb! Thanks for this!
Love your show!
Thank you for taking the time to tell me. Thanks for the encouragement.
I feel the love
I work in a Wholesale Plant Nursery named Village Nurseries in Sac,Ca. Prunus Pendula and Prunus Snow Fountain look cool when in bloom
Thanks Gary. Great video. I pruned my 3 year old weeping cherry tree this past February before it started to bloom. Well, after it bloomed it lost about1/2 to 3/4 of the leaves on the lower 16 - 24 inches of every branch. Is this something i need to be concerned with or do you think it is normal ?
I have a question about my Weeping Cherry. I ordered it online so the main branch is only about 8 inches tall & it’s in a pot until roots are better established. It’s doing good, but when it started growing, at the top, there’s a shoot growing out from the side. Not sure whether to stake it as part of the main trunk or trim for the weeping formation. Can you help? I understand it’s difficult without a picture!
Hello, very informative.Would you prune a weeping Santa rosa plum the same way? Thanks for your reply.
thank you for your video. I recently found a lot of white caterpillars inside the stem of the tree, and half of the stem already gone. Is there any way to save the tree? Thank you
We bought a weeping cherry tree this spring half of the top of tree is dead, should we cut it off and how much should we leave? Thanks
my tree has a few branches off to one side but nothing branching off to the opposite side; is there anything that i can try to get balanced branching?
I just bought 2 weeping cherry trees . The seller is no help whatsoever. Almost every bud had gotten frost bite and they crumble right off . But the tree is still alive . I wanna trim the dead off the tips of the branches . How to I tell when I’ve hit live tissue ? My plan is to trim all the dead off and let it start fresh . Thanks so much 😊
Any ideas why new leaves would curl and brown?
Hi there! Sir, it's amazing how did you formed the cherry three, so it grows as you say weepy branches? I beg your pardon, I didn't get it, might it be special sort/race of cherry tree?
Thanks
This is great info! I purchased one of these 2 weeks ago and its still very young, we are coming into winter here in Australia so is it normal for the tree to drop all its leafs? I have no experience in gardening so i am keen to learn.
Weeping cherries are deciduous trees. They drop their leaves during the winter months.
thanks for the video. I'm thinking about getting one for the front of my house can you tell me if flowers only bloom in spring only or the whole summer? Thanks
Only for about 2 weeks in the spring.
Just once and then if it rains or it gets windy they’re gone.
So the roots don't bother a house? How is the root system I have a baby one that I bought from burges that I have in a pot and I've been wanting to put it in the ground but I'm not sure where to put it yet but I noticed yours is close by your house so the roots won't bother the house?
Wondering this as well.
I bought a "baby" and all the branches grew out but not up. What's the best way to handle this tree?
Trim the branches (like u would roses)
