Four years ago I moved house taking with me a pot into which I had placed a Maraschino cherry from a neighbour's garden. During year one, a seedling appeared. I planted it in year two. The small tree flowered in year three and produced three cherries in year four.
While waiting for them to achieve the perfect ripeness and imagining how wonderful the much waited-for fruit would taste, the birds ate them. I hope this helps. I have had to move again and left my lovely tree in the garden for, no-doubt, others to savour next year's crop.
