My neighbor planted a tree next to the fence and the tree roots lifted my sidewalk on my side. Wish more people would give more consideration when planting a tree. Also never plant a tree close to the house. It will ruin the foundation.
These are indeed lovely trees, however, they get huge. Huge. The one in this video is far too close to the fence. It will overhang into the neighbors yard by about a third. This is the cycle of a yoshino cherry: Bloom. Lovely. Blooms shed like pink snow. After petals are gone, bloom stems fall all over. Berries come, some fall, most ripen. Birds eat them and poop berry colored poop. All the berries that fell off will seed. Mowing reduces this, but any beds nearby, birds will take seeds to. How do I know this? I have 2 quite large trees in my yard. One is about 20 feet from my house. Mistake. Oh...final 'need to know' issue. Roots. They put out massive roots. Massive. they will grow right out of the ground if you ever have drought like weather. The roots will take over an area as large or larger than the leaf canopy. Think twice about this tree. There are better choices. In the yard in the video, in the area proposed, a dwarf flowering cherry of some type would be better, or perhaps a dwarf ornamental plum. Not a Yoshino.
Yes my parents had one for years and after the tree died they are still trying to get the roots up, its a mess. You'd think I'd have learned but no I just bought one. However we have a huge garden so I plan on planting far away from the house, driveway and road!
Totally agree with you! And that’s what Japanese garden experts would suggest too. May I ask how and where to look for a dwarf weeping cherry tree? And can we plant it in a pot to control the root to destroy house foundation? Thanks
In Japan, most of flowering cherry tree are not recommended for back yard garden ( too close to house) , because of it’s massive roots, etc. That’s why you almost only see them in public spaces such parks, along the river,etc.
They graft them on a tree type with less root vigour which also keeps the tree smaller. I have several and there are no issues at all. It’s not an oak tree!
What they don't point out is that half the canopy will be over the neighbors yard. And if they are like most neighbors that means they won't like all those flower pettals covering their yard. Lot of clean up with cherry trees. And like most neighbors after the first big clean up they will start cutting all the limbs that cross into their yard. Which most places allow by law. And that's where the fued begins. Got to think ahead with landscaping in a neighborhood.
Cherry tree leaves fallen from between branches, left on top of branch only. Also some leaves have holes . Place where leaves fall some liquid coming out
@Joe Kinchicken Is that what somebody accused you of being? Well, no need to project your insecurities or social awkwardness on others. Seek therapy to work out your issues, because seriously when you make weird replies to innocuous comments that have nothing to do with you, you seem needy for attention.
I understand a lot of us weren’t pleased with Rogers departure but I just wish him nothing but good health and longevity. I’m sure he wouldn’t approve of people berating Jenn.
Hello we had a tree like these that produced a small plum like fruit very sweet, larger than a cherry but smaller than a plum. Any idea what kind of cherry tree it would have been???
I live in NJ and will be planting one today while the soil is wet from rain and not too cold. The roots need about 8 weeks to really take hold before the ground freezes.
1. Tree needs the graft an inch above grade, not several inches, which will cause suckers (too deep is a major problem, too). 2. Tree CANNOT fit in this yard, not even close, and can cause several problems as time passes. If intentional, maybe cut it down in 10 years...after planting it offset of center by 5-8', so another tree can be placed in the reciprocal offset spot when the time comes, or center it and then plant ground cover there and no replacement tree. This video perpetuates the poor spacing of most trees and shrubs in this country (too close to houses and foundations, fences/posts that will heave, neighbors, other trees, etc.). Little known fact: wrapping pipes in fine copper mesh prevents root penetration, without harming the tree! I would bank they've planted about 3 trees, ever. They did get a few things close to right, but it's not that darn hard to read about how wide a tree will get, or to prune things to stay medium-sized and fit the space confines. Get a trained, professional landscaper to give you advice before you waste time, money and tree lives, or read. I've planted hundreds, trained with the 2nd best landscaping school, etc. Don't be afraid to plop it in there, just know you may make a mistake, and some mistakes are easily avoidable. Get a sharp lopper and pruner... water before it's too dry (for the first 6 months), fertilize lightly early spring/fall, have fun, plant many things.
interested insome consultation? im about to plant a few trees in my property, the cherry blossoms are in the top of my list but im confused as to how close it can be to the fence etc
Sherri Ianiro How else to lift the tree? By the hand?? 😧 That is how you are supposed to take a tree out of a pot; by grabbing the base of the trunk and pulling it out (hopefully you have a helper to put the pot in the opposite direction for you).
@@user2144 After you lift it from the pot you are supposed to quickly grab ahold of the bottom with your other hand or have a helper so that the root flare does not separate or tear from the weight of the potted material which is quite heavy - per advice from arborist & I am not sure but it was either Roger on TOH or the Victory Garden show (don't remember which - maybe both) showed to do it this way too!
Two mistakes one digging the hole larger than the pot and two disturbing the rootball. It does not need to be watered every day and after the first summer just let the rain take care of it.
That's really close to that fence. I hope the neighbor likes that tree. In a few years he'll be raking up almost half the leaves that fall from it.

Really loved the carefully composed advice. Thank you. :-)
allison schmitt Thank you for the great advice!

lol, yeah, there's not nearly enough space in the yard, not even close
They graft them on a tree type with less root vigour which also keeps the tree smaller. I have several and there are no issues at all. It’s not an oak tree!
When i planted my Cherry tree i was proud of myself because i actually knew which end of the tree went into the ground😳
In the mixture I use 60/ 40. 60 for fertilizer and 40 for natural soil. Also use a soil meter. Its more reliable than your finger

"In winter the bark is interesting." Can't say I've ever heard someone excited about that aspect of a tree. Trying to oversell a little bit?
Some trees genuinely do have interesting bark. This tree isn't one of them.
Paper bark maple, River Birch, Lilac Tree.
Tibetan Cherry trees as well for sure
Cherry tree leaves fallen from between branches, left on top of branch only. Also some leaves have holes . Place where leaves fall some liquid coming out
Good to see Jenn again; feels like it's been awhile.
@Joe Kinchicken Do you hide under your bed when the birds sing? 🤔🤧

It's not berating someone if they are allegedly pros at their job. It would have taken a google to find out about that tree.
I wonder how the tree is looking now?
Will cherries actually growing it or do cherries not grow on cherry blossoms.
Question: can I plant a Kwazen cherry blossom tree in a 25 gallon container???? For about 10 years or less ???
maybe 3-5 years
it will stunt the roots, but sure. It will also take more care.
Best tree planting vid I've seen yet.
Does planting a Cherry Blossom only comes with a small tree trunk like that? Can I plant a cherry blossom with a seed only?
Here they put 1-2 feet of mulch sometimes more... And then wonder why tree's suffocate...
Too close to the fence to me
You should have put a stake in to support it for the weathers blowing high winds ok.
Hello we had a tree like these that produced a small plum like fruit very sweet, larger than a cherry but smaller than a plum. Any idea what kind of cherry tree it would have been???
Try looking up American Plum.
Possibly Pluerry. Plum/cherry hybrid
Doesn't the north side of the tree have to be planted so it's facing north? I wish they would have said.
Can you plant cherry trees near black walnuts (jobalone?)
Wonderful.
What if I have clay soil what should I do ?
where is Roger?
seems he retired :( Oh I loved how the guy talked in the show :(
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Cook_(landscaper)
"On Jan-7 2020 Kevin said on the Tonight Show that Roger was stepping down completely from TOH.
I have heard you need to plant a male and female cherry tree or two different kinds of cherry trees? True or not?
"Water it every day [for an indeterminate amount of time]. Then water it differently." Hmmmm.....
what time of year is it appropriate to plant this tree?
I live in NJ and will be planting one today while the soil is wet from rain and not too cold. The roots need about 8 weeks to really take hold before the ground freezes.
someone else gave him a tic in the eye when he scratched and broke the roots? and his hole all small haha
Why are all the youtube videos getting so dark?
why not in the corner?
Good job but too close to the fence .
Where did Roger go.
I miss ‘Let’s get staw-ted’
I always use stawtuh fertalizuh
The 🌲 tree was planted in the wrong location. Too close to the fence.
Thats what I was going to say...😂
1. Tree needs the graft an inch above grade, not several inches, which will cause suckers (too deep is a major problem, too). 2. Tree CANNOT fit in this yard, not even close, and can cause several problems as time passes.

interested insome consultation? im about to plant a few trees in my property, the cherry blossoms are in the top of my list but im confused as to how close it can be to the fence etc
only one?
I was confused for a second or two because I thought the title was 'How to Paint a Cherry Tree'. Thankfully that was wrong!
this is not good place it will cover the neighbour yard also
Why was this video very awkward
Typically Washington DC'ers. Also they were supposed to "call before they dig". That's the law.
not hand dug
😃👍🏻👊🏻
Is this April's fools joke? WHERE IS ROGER???
POLAND STRONK his back is trashed
On March 25 It was my birthday
Well happy birthday...practically a week later 😂
I was surprised she lifted the tree by the trunk when putting it into the hole - that could seriously damage the tree.
Sherri Ianiro How else to lift the tree? By the hand?? 😧

How about advocating for native Cherry trees? Waste.
