digger, What a bumper harvest from 10 plants. Wow! I was just going to grow Cherry varieties this year but caved yesterday and bought a few Better Boys, one of my all time favs, and are already about 2' tall and 'leggy'. The limb broke off one on the short ride home and have buried all but the top in soil, hoping it'll root as a 'bonus' plant. I am going to try your method. Thank you for taking the time to share your method with us. And who from the South doesn't love Fried Green Tomatoes? My home state is SC.

For my birthday last year, hubs made a potting bench with a kit of legs and connectors from Amazon. Then he bought and cut to size pressure treated wood to make the shelves and top legs and I don't know how many stainless steel screws. It was great using it on the shady side of our house as shown in the pic. Down side, besides being so darned heavy, is he used the boom on our tractor to move it when we pressure washed the decks. It is still sitting behind our garage, almost unbearable to use now in Summer in full sun. Go with an easy inexpensive set-up, Debra, that you can move and store when yours is not in use.
