Last Updated: 2024/11/22, Western cherry (also known as big cherry) has not been introduced into China for only one hundred years. Cultivation is concentrated in the provinces along the coast of Bohai Bay, among which Shandong Province is the most. In recent years, many places have also been introduced and cultivated. However, they all show strong tree growth, long branches, few flower buds, serious falling flowers and fruits.

Western cherry (also known as big cherry) has not been introduced into China for only one hundred years. Cultivation is concentrated in the provinces along the coast of Bohai Bay, among which Shandong Province is the most. In recent years, many places have also been introduced and cultivated. However, they all showed vigorous tree growth, long branches, few flower buds, serious falling flowers and fruits, and little or no fruit. Show no economic cultivation value, the main reasons: 1. Big cherry requires a cool and dry climate, which requires a long time of sunshine and a high percentage of sunshine. The sunshine time required for a year is 2600-2800 hours, and the percentage of sunshine is 577.64%. It is not suitable for warm and humid climate, high temperature, more Rain Water and short sunshine time. Such an environment is bound to have a great impact on the flower bud differentiation, flowering and fruiting of big cherry. As a result, there is only a long tip but no result. 2. Big cherry is a kind of tree species which requires long hours of low temperature when it is dormant in winter. When the temperature is lower than 7.2 ℃ in winter, it takes 2272 hours from 2007 to 2272 hours before the natural dormancy can be successfully completed. Otherwise, the flower bud is dysplastic, the flower organ is incomplete, the sprouting is slow, the flower drop is serious, or the flower bud is dead and shedding in the following year. And the climate of our province, some years of winter, there will be a warm winter, it is difficult to meet the demand for low temperature of big cherries, it will have a certain impact on flowering and fruiting. This is also one of the reasons for the low seed setting rate or poor fruit setting rate. Therefore, in order to cultivate big cherry in our province, it is necessary to start with introduction and choose the ecological environment suitable for big cherry. Do not develop blindly.
