Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Such an outstanding cherry with its beautiful pale-yellow cherries blushed with red. Very firm flesh has great texture and quality with a sweet flavor which is considered to be superior to most varieties. The yellow color helps to outsmart birds since they usually go for the red cherries. Bears early in the season on a lovely 15-20' tee and the fruit is resistant to cracking. Needs a pollinator, 'Stella' and 'Montmorency' are good choices; requires 500 chill hours. S/M
