Cherry trees are usually quite good at adapting to all kinds of situation. As long as there are roots, the trees should survive. The best thing you can do is to water deeply once or twice a week to encourage new root growth. In the meantime you may not see much top growth, because the roots are busy trying to stay alive. Just water regularly and by next spring you should see some new growth. Let's hope so! |
