Planting instructions and care

1. Location – Choose a spot in full sun with ample air circulation.
2. Soil – Airy, fertile garden soil with good drainage.

4. Pruning – After harvest, to keep the tree airy and healthy.
5. Pollination – Pay attention to the pollination requirements of each variety. Some varieties require a partner.

Harvest & enjoy

The first cherries often ripen in June or July, depending on the variety. Pick them when they turn dark brown and feel soft. Eat them fresh, use them in desserts, or make jam. They also freeze well for later use.

Suitable for any garden

Whether you have a large garden or a compact space, there's always a suitable cherry tree. Low-stemmed trees stay smaller and are easier to prune and harvest. Even in a pot on the patio, a cherry tree can thrive. Pick your own fruit – straight from your garden.
