An unusual dual use cherry, sweet enough to eat fresh when fully ripe, but also preserves well and makes delicious jams, pies and liqueurs Ideal if you only have a small space and want to enjoy both cooking and eating cherries A sweet, tangy flavour when eaten ripe, but you should wait until fully ripe to get the best taste Early Harvest - Early July Colt Rootstock: Max size H4m x W4m Rootstocks restrict the size of a tree to make it more suited for an average gardenMORE Partially Self fertile (Pollination Group 3) will produce fruit without pollination but will benefit from a pollination partner within pollination groups 1, 2, or 3 within a mile's radius to really increase crops. In most built up areas there should be a pollination partner in range. MORE Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch. Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE Show more
