    I have a 2yr old cherry tree but there are no other cherry trees in the neighbourhood. I had lots of small wild like cherries last year.
    How can I pollinate or should I graft - pls help

    If your tree had small, poor-tasting cherries last year, then it must be a seedling tree. It would only be usable as a rootstock on which to graft a named variety. It might not even make a very good rootstock. I would start over with a self-fertile variety like Compact Stella.
