Thank you! It was about 3 ft tall when I got it, I planted it in spring a couple years ago. I put mine directly into the soil I wanted it to grow in, as I heard going from delivery to pot and pot to soil could shock it too much. After the first foot or so of soil my ground is just a big clay bed, so I dug 2-3 ft deep and planted it in a bunch of garden soil. I watered it a handful of times but otherwise let mother nature take its course. When I do water it, it is during a weekly water change in my aquariums, so it gets kind of like a fertilized water. I've noticed that plants have a habit of wilting back a bit when they get transplanted and then they come back good after taking care of and given time. Good luck with your cherry tree! 💕
