- Available on different rootstocks to suit your space: Colt (4m), Cordon Trained (2m), and Dwarf (1.5m).

- Latin Name: Prunus avium
- Variety: Cherry
- Flavour: Dark, red cherries with a distinct sweet, aromatic flavour
- Use: Eating
- Flowering: March
- Harvest: Late July to August
- Position: Full Sun
- Soil: Happy in most soils, except sandy or poorly drained
- Hardiness: Hardy, but protect flowers from late frosts
- Eventual Spread: 4m
- Features: Easy to grow, Self-fertile
- Pest & Disease: Good resistance
- Planting: Can be planted year-round. Choose a spot in full sun with fertile, deep, well-draining soil. Avoid sandy or waterlogged conditions.
- Watering: Water thoroughly after planting. For the first few months, water every other day, reducing to twice a week until autumn. From the second year, water only during dry spells. It's better to give a deep soaking less frequently than a little and often.
- Feeding: This tree does not require additional feeding.
- Pruning: Perform structural pruning each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve airflow, and prevent disease.
- Pests: Shows good resistance to common cherry pests and diseases. Protect ripening fruit from birds using netting. Aphids and caterpillars can be washed off with soapy water. Pruning for good airflow helps reduce the risk of bacterial canker.
- Frost: The tree is hardy, but the flowers can be damaged by very late frosts, which may reduce the fruit yield for that year. Protect with fleece if a late frost is forecast.
