Question

Special features of cherry tree.?

Answer 1

Cherries are grown in all areas of the world where winter temperatures are not too severe and where summer temperatures are moderate. They require winter cold in order to blossom in spring. The trees bloom quite early in the spring, just after peaches and earlier than apples. In Asia, particularly Japan, cherry varieties have been selected for the beauty of their flowers, and most of them do not set fruit. These beautiful ornamentals are featured in many gardens and after about 1900 were widely disseminated throughout the moderate-temperature areas of North America and Europe. The Japanese flowering cherries around the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C., were presented by the mayor of Tokyo in 1912.

Answer 2

Answer:

Sweet cherry trees are large and rather upright, attaining heights up to 11 metres (36 feet). The fruit is a fleshy drupe (stone fruit) that is generally heart-shaped to nearly globular, about 2 cm (1 inch) in diameter, and varies in colour from yellow through red to nearly black.

Explanation:

1. Sweet cherries are best suited for areas where temperatures are mild and humidity is low while tart cherries will grow in cooler climates and need about 2 months of winter temperatures below 45° F. Washington, Oregon and California produce more than 97 percent of the sweet cherries in the U.S. and the top tart cherry
2. 16 to 20 years
3. The typical lifespan of a cherry tree is as short as 16 to 20 years. Some species are longer lived than others. Black cherry trees (Prunus serotina) live up to 250 years, although the average lifespan of a black cherry is 100 years
4. Cherry blossoms are really just trees getting it on. ... Pollination is basically tree sex facilitated by a third party. In order for plants to make seeds to reproduce, they need pollen to come into contact with a part of the plant called the pistil, both of which are located in flowers.
