The sweet fruit are nice and firm, with a refreshing touch of acidity. The cherries ripen over a couple of weeks, not all at once, like most cherries, cropping in late August/ September. Beneficial to bees, insects and wildlife. Compact in size, it is well suited to small gardens and even patios when grown in a container. Hardy and resilient, it performs well across the UK, including northern regions. Rich, well drained aerated fertile soil is essential for good performance, it does prefer full sun.
Bare root trees are dispatched from November. If your order contains other plants or trees available now, please get in touch if you would like the other trees sooner.
Like other cherries, it should be pruned in summer to avoid silver leaf disease which should be done early in the growing season and then only to remove dead or diseased growth.
A delightful named tree is a favourite gift to someone you love.
