1. Improper Pollination: Cherries, particularly sweet varieties, often need cross-pollination to fruit. If there is no suitable pollinator tree in proximity, or pollinating insects like bees are not present, the blossoms may not develop into fruit.
2. Pruning and Maintenance: Improper or insufficient pruning can affect fruiting. Pruning helps stimulate the growth of new fruit-bearing wood, controls the tree’s size, and lets sunlight reach the inner branches.
3. Biennial Bearing: Some fruit trees, including certain cherry varieties, may exhibit a pattern called biennial bearing, where they produce fruit heavily one year and minimally or not at all the next. This is a response to the stress of a heavy crop, which depletes the tree's resources.
