Fruit Tree Grafting: Fall Field Notes
Field note · October 2025
sweet cherry grafts onto pin cherry, in zone 3
sweet cherry grafts onto pin cherry, in zone 3. will they survive and fruit? no idea, possibly first time anyone has tried this specific combination of swedish varieties (hardy to at least -30C) on top of some wild pin cherry in a zone that reaches -42C most winters. 5 ft off the ground help with deer grazing, and can help with air temperature, but surely this is an exposed location at the end of our lane, fully above the snow, but sheltered by some tall trees. #sweetcherry #zonepushing
