Planting & Care

Choose from delicious varieties like the sweet 'Stella' (RHS Award of Garden Merit), the large-fruited 'Sunburst', or the tart 'Morello', perfect for cooking.
Enjoy a stunning display of white blossoms in spring, followed by a summer harvest of juicy cherries.
Your tree arrives expertly pre-trained into the ideal cordon shape, ready for planting.

Species: Cherry
Features: RHS Award of Garden Merit, Self fertile
Flowering Time: March, April
Harvest Time: July, August
Planting Time: January to December
Flower Colour: Beautiful white blossoms appear in spring
Position: Full sun
Eventual Spread: Spreads approximately 0.5m.
Habit: Trees trained in a cordon shape comprise of a single vertical trunk from which short, fruit-bearing spurs branch off horizontally.
Hardiness: H6 - This cordon cherry tree will withstand temperatures down to -20°C.
Soil Type: Cherry trees like fertile soil that drains well, and preferably soil that's slightly acidic and deep enough to allow the root system to establish better.
Uses: Eating fresh, cooking, jams and desserts
Self-Fertile: Variety dependent

Pruning: To maintain the cordon form, prune annually. In late August, trim shoots longer than 20 cm, cutting back to one leaf beyond the basal cluster of the current year's growth. If the spurs become too dense, especially in older trees, thin out some of the less productive, older spurs during winter pruning.
Pest & Disease: Certain cherry varieties like 'Stella' and 'Sunburst' display good resistance to problems like cracking and canker. However, cordon cherry trees can be affected by aphids and caterpillars. You can easily wash these off with soapy water, however.

Product Specifications
