>>1800058While the cherries do get sunburned at peak summer the problem is the chill hours loosely defined as temp between 35-45 (although different models to calculate chill exist).
Ive heard there was a cherry variety called cristobalina from spain that needs no chill hours but i havent been able to locate it. But honestly, ove given up on cherries since ive put in cherimoyas and dragon fruit. It just makes more sense. If i could get cherries to fruit in my climate i would have to net the tree or find a way to protect from birds also cherry ripen in a matter of weeks so i would be drowning in cherries one week then have nothing for the rest of the year.
