Water young Dwarf Cherry tree until the tree is established. Give an occasional soaking during periods of drought. Control weeds and grass under the Cherry tree with a 3- to 4-inch layer of organic mulch. Fertilize young trees in the early spring season. Fertilize fruiting trees after harvest and apply 2 ounces of a balanced fertilizer for each inch of trunk diameter. A Cherry tree with a 4-inch diameter trunk requires 8 ounces of fertilizer. Prune Cherry trees in late winter during the dormant phase. Shape the Chery tree to develop a main trunk with well-spaced limbs. Remove branches that cross or rub other branches. Young trees growing in windy areas benefit from staking even if they are not Dwarf varieties. Pruning doesn’t vary between Dwarf fruit trees and their larger counterparts when it comes to technique. Though Dwarf fruit trees have less surface area than standard trees, so they require less work to maintain.
