Prunus padus - European bird cherry

continental : These plants prefer a sunny location, where they can enjoy direct solar rays even throughout the whole day,
These plants are grown in the garden year round because they are rustic.

alpine : Let's grow the The Prunus padus in a sunny place, with direct solar light.
These plants are rustic, they can stand the heat and cold, therefore they can be planted outside.

mediterranean : Plant which needs a few hours a day of solar light.
These plants can stand the cold weather, they can be grown as garden plants during the whole year.

continental : During this time of year very frequent watering is advised, even daily if the climate is very hot and dry; let’s try to keep the soil cool and damp. Irrigate every 1-2 weeks, during the evening or morning hours.

alpine : The Prunus padus should be watered regularly, to maintain the substratum slightly damp using 5-6 buckets of water; if the climate is very hot and there are scarce precipitations it might be necessary to water every 2-3 weeks, or more often than that.

mediterranean : We suggest watering often, trying to keep the soil slightly damp with 7-8 buckets of water, but avoiding excesses; the forming of water stagnations also harm those plants which love wetness, usually the frequency of watering is every 0-1 weeks.

Feed Prunus padus : In this period of the year it isn’t necessary to fertilize trees; if we intend planting new trees, let’s enrich the soil with organic fertilizer.
