Description

Delicious sweet black cherries
Self-fertile for guaranteed fruit
Vigorous trees with lovely April-May blossom

Enjoy the first self-fertile black sweet cherries of this popular home-grown variety. The large juicy cherries have a delicious flavour, they are sweetest when the tree is located somewhere that allows it have a long exposure to the sun.

The beautiful blossoms on this variety is beautiful in the spring with the dark fruits being produced in July.

Sunburst does best when planted in well-drained soil and can be trained to grow against a wall or a fence or can be grown simply into small bushy tree.

The fruits are fantastic when eaten fresh or when cooked in pies, tarts and preserves.

We recommend that you give Sunburst a rich soil and grow in a sunny part of the plot. Prune a quarter of the fruited stem in August down to a leafy-shoot further down the stem. This encourages a healthy balance of one and two+ year old stems which produces the maximum amount of cherries.

Most of our trees are delivered as bare rooted specimens with approximate height of: 3.5ft - 5ft / 105cm - 140cm depending on the variety.

In order to ensure a good pollination pick fruit trees from within the same or from adjacent flowering groups.

We may prune your tree before it arrives to your door. We do this to encourage your tree to branch freely which makes them better looking and more productive.
