Planting & Care

Enjoy delicious, sweet black cherries perfect for both fresh eating and cooking.
Self-fertile, making it the perfect choice if you only have space for one cherry tree.
Harvest your crop mid-season, with cherries ready to pick in mid-July.
A dependable and consistent cropper, delivering a bountiful harvest every year.
Excellent resistance to common pests and diseases, including fruit cracking.
Available on a Colt rootstock or as a space-saving Cordon, making it suitable for gardens of all sizes, including pot cultivation.

Species: Cherry
Latin Name: Prunus avium
Flavour: Very sweet with a rich flavour
Use: Eating
Flowering Time: April
Harvest Time: July
Pollination: Self-fertile (Pollination Group 4). Does not require a pollination partner but may produce better crops if one is nearby. Trees can usually pollinate a group either side of their own.
Position: Full sun
Soil: Prefers deep, fertile, well-draining soil. Tolerates clay but not sandy or waterlogged soil.
Hardiness: Hardy, but flowers may require some protection from very late frosts to ensure a good fruit yield.
Eventual Size: Colt Rootstock: H4m x W4m. Cordon Trained: H2m x W1m.
Pest & Disease Resistance: Excellent resistance to main cherry pests and diseases, including cracking.
Pruning: Requires some structural pruning each winter to maintain shape and improve yield.

Planting Time: Can be planted at any time of year.
Location: Choose a sheltered position in full sun.
Soil: Plant in deep, fertile, well-draining soil. Avoid sandy or poorly draining spots. If you have heavy clay, improve the drainage before planting.
Pruning: Prune in winter to maintain a productive shape, which helps improve yields and prevent disease.
Frost Protection: While the tree is hardy, the blossom is vulnerable to late frosts. Protect with fleece if a cold snap is forecast during flowering to ensure a good crop.
Pest Control: Aphids and caterpillars can be washed away with soapy water. Protect the ripening fruit from birds using netting or bird scarers.
