I bought a Lapins and a Stella Cherry tree on 3cr178 root stock. Has anyone else grown these?
They have dropped the chill hour requirement on both trees so they may give us more choices for cherries in the Valley.

Yes, it is supposed to keep the tree at about 8 feet. So far, the reviews that I have read for this root stock have been positive.
