YouGarden Sweet Cherry 'Stella' Bare Root Tree, 1.2-1.4m Tall, Grow Your Own Fruit UK Gardens, Bare Root Cherry Tree for Gardens

My bare‑rooted cherry tree arrived in excellent condition. The tree has a beautiful, well-balanced shape and the root system is strong and well formed. It was delivered in secure, thoughtful packaging that kept everything protected. Very pleased with the quality and care taken.

Good quality

I bought this tree for my mum 7 years ago. Last year was the first bumper crop year due to the good weather I expect but it has been growing and getting better year after year. The one thing I’d flag is that the cherries are much lighter than pictured in the listing as I’ve posted here. I don’t mind however, they are sweet and very good indeed! I only docked star for this reason as the listing is not accurate.

Two days from ordering to delivery, excellent looking tree, very healthy compared to a similar item that I ordered a few weeks a go from another company on Amazon.

Quality items.

Arrived 3 days after order placed. A stick with tiny tiny buds, nothing like those pictures in the item description - the root is a lot smaller, and it doesn't have any branches at all. Root was wrapped in cling film. Looked a bit dry so I soaked the roots in a bucket of water for 1 hour before planting it out in the garden. Almost one month on, it is still a stick. The tiny tiny buds are still tiny tiny buds. No sign of life at all. While I still have couple days left before I can return it, I've decided to keep it for three reasons: (1) The plant nurseries had a hard time in the past year; (2) I still have some hope in the stick; (3) I can't really be bothered to dig the stick out, wrap it and go to post office to return it. A lesson learned not to buy bare root plants online in the future - it's false economy. Buy potted instead; at least they'd have better chance survive the transport process.

Not keeping cherry at all, flowers but no fruit

Well packaged, although just left at the front door as usual by the courier (despite the instruction to leave at the back porch) so it blew over and a branch broke off. No matter though as I left for 2 days in a bucket of water before putting it in a pot of normal Compost and a month or 2 later it's thriving, plenty of new growth and lots of leaves. Kept making sure it had enough water. I'm assuming I won't see any cherries this year as it was planted in spring but after most other similar trees had already flowered, however next year it should be well established and produce fruit. Its cheap, fast growing and simple to do. Probably going to leave it potted.
