my unpredictable cherries

13 years ago

Side by side, both in fabric pots, both started from seed, both watered and fed identically, I have two cherries...a Gardener's Delight and Chadwick Cherry.

1) The GD has a 65 DTM, and the CC has 80-90 DTM.
Well, my CC just had a cluster start blushing today which is 63 days after transplant. Any explanation why the CC beat the GD?

2) I expected similar size fruit (1 oz), however a lot of the green GD fruit is already near or at golfball size. Is this characteristic of GD?

3) The GD is expected to reach 80" in height but the CC only 36-42". Both are about the same height well over 60". Any explanation for the CC height?
