Please do not spray or do anything to the wild cherry trees. And if at all possible, cut them down this winter if they are anywhere near the cattle. They are VERY TOXIC to the cattle. They can eat the leaves green off the live plant, but if a limb comes down and they wilt, it will kill the cows. We cut them down during the winter off all the fencerows... and have had to move cattle out of fields where there has been big branches or trees come down.The sun is brutal but tilled in-between rows anyways. Amazing the tiller is still throwing up mud balls. Very wet spring it was, no doubt about that. My wild black cherry trees are dropping their leaves. I'm thinking it's a case of brown spot fungal disease probably brought on by the wet spring followed by heat wave this week. Some of my orchard trees are showing the same. I bought a bottle of orchard spray, I'll hit all the fruit trees after it rains and dries up.
here's what a wild black cherry leaf looks like. I won't be sparying the wild black cherry trees. There are too many of them and I would need a something to get me up very high off the ground.

Believe me, you will not miss the da#@ed things. The cherries are not edible and they are a nusiance tree at best and a dangerous one at worst.
