https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=cherrytree tells me that cherrytree is currently only available in the stretch (oldstable) and jessie (oldoldstable) suites.
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/cherrytree tells me that cherrytree was removed from Debian in 2017, here is the removal report: https://tracker.debian.org/news/864463/cherrytree-removed-from-testing/
Now, that removal report isn't terribly clear. The removal reason appears to be "Bug #867787: cherrytree: Changes sometimes not saved". #867787 was a grave bug against cherrytree which, presumably, was not fixed in time for a release, so the package was dropped (in other words, it wasn't being maintained).
