Got this from the market this year in a pot and put it under my front veranda.  It was doing very well until I forgot to water it one week and all the leaves dried up.  I cut it back and put it outside.  I hope it takes off again.

Hey Speedy, can't help with Cherokee, but next year could swap some Shoshonii (B) if you get the Cherokee going? I only have the one, and even though it's self-pollinating, might be good to have an A on it? (Likewise for you?) What rootstock were you grafting it onto? Cheers, Nathan PS I'm not sure where replies etc come to on here, have not commented before. Maybe CC nathan_poole at haawtmail (replace with hot) dot com if you're interested?

Do these need pruning and what feeding do they need?

Bertybeetle, I've just pruned trees to train their shape. I think they're in their third season now and I've cut off all branches below 2.5 metres so i can walk under them. I just feed with compost , animal manures and woodchip mulch
