Not all plants can be planted next to cherries.
In this article, we will tell you that it is better not to plant cherry trees next to them.
What not to plant with cherries
Birch, oak and maple trees should not be planted next to cherry trees.
In addition, the tree does not tolerate well the proximity to raspberries and gooseberries, which have a tendency to grow, which negatively affects stone fruits.
It is also advisable to exclude currants from the list of neighbors, although shade-loving varieties can take root.
Do not plant potatoes next to cherries. These crops are not compatible, since the potatoes can die from the secretions contained in the roots of the cherry.
You also cannot plant tobacco, eggplant, peppers, tomatoes and strawberries under the cherry tree.
