Planting & Care

Enjoy delicious, sweet black cherries perfect for eating fresh from the tree or for cooking.
Harvest a bountiful and dependable crop in mid-July.
Self-fertile, so you only need one tree to get fruit.
Excellent disease and pest resistance, including resistance to fruit cracking.
Grown on a Colt rootstock, reaching a manageable height of 4m, making it ideal for average gardens.
Suitable for growing in a large pot on a patio.

Latin Name: Prunus avium
Variety: Sunburst Cherry
Taste: Very sweet with a rich flavour
Fruit Use: Eating
Flowering Time: April
Harvest Time: July
Pollination: Self-fertile (Pollination Group 4). Does not require a pollination partner but crops may be improved with one nearby.
Position: Full sun
Soil: Happy in most soils except sandy. Prefers fertile, well-draining soil.
Hardiness: Hardy. May require protection from very late frosts which can damage flowers.
Pest & Disease Resistance: Excellent resistance to the main pests and diseases for cherries, including cracking.
Eventual Spread: 4m

Planting Time: Can be planted at any time of year.
Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. For the first year, water regularly until the roots are established. Afterwards, water well during dry spells. It is better to water heavily and less frequently than little and often.
Feeding: No feeding is required.
Pruning: Some structural pruning should be done each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve yields, and prevent disease.
Pest & Disease Care: Watch for aphids and caterpillars, which can be washed away with soapy water. Protect ripening fruit from birds using netting or bird scarers.
