Watch out for

Cherry leaf scorch: Improve air circulation by pruning and avoid wetting foliage when watering.

Cherry leaf spot: Rake and dispose of fallen leaves in autumn to reduce overwintering spores.

Silver leaf fungus: Prune out and burn affected branches well below the visible symptoms.

Powdery mildew: Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering to keep foliage dry.

Slugs and snails: Use beer traps, copper tape barriers, or iron phosphate-based pellets.
