Just got a 14yo cherry tree. Does it look normal?

I don't think it is cherry (latin family prunus) and I don't think it is 14 years old.

What is it and what age does it look like?

Hey.
Where are you from?

It looks like a type of cherry we have here in Brazil (not prunus family), Eugenia involucrata, the Cherry of the Rio Grande.

About the age, it's difficult to say, but if that's the species I'm talking about you can achieve this in about 2 years. (or even less, depending on how it was treated, potted, the climate and season it was planted)

But sorry, 14 years old is a lie.

I live in north east USA. The tab said "Age-14". Would that be 14 months then?

Maybe 14 months. Maybe 1,4 year or just anything between 1 and 5. Hey, maybe the business has been goind on for 14 years?

The value of a tree is to a big extend dependent on the age. But age cannot be checked without killing the tree. Naturally there are a type of incentative for "inflation" in age told. We all guess the age and I think most of us overestimate our own trees and underestimate others.

But this is a quite drastic overestimation. The range is so out of proportion that I cannot see any other explanation than that it is a deliberate lie for business purpouse.

This one from Tramujas, is a Cherry of the Rio Grande, about 15 years old (on the ground)

Leaves are yellowed because it was end of winter, it also has those beautiful colors on the smooth and scaling bark when more mature that jumps into your eyes when it's wet.

Maybe I've already shared this tree here, can't remember, but it's one of my prefered species, I have some saplings here on the process...

Ohh okay. Thanks everyone!

At what age does it usually flower and at what time of the year?

Back to the first question:

PaEmerDoes it look normal?

Do you mean the spots on the leaves? Or the chuncks eaten out of the leaf?

It flowers on spring, and it's a very precocious species, generally about 2 - 3 years...

Just have in mind that (if that's the same species, which I'm preety confident) I live where they are native from, so here it's ok to have them on the ground for thickening, and they grow faster, since it is their own environment .
