An abundance of white flower clusters bloom in mid-spring, followed by a heavy crop of bright red cherries with yellow flesh in early-mid summer. Self-fertile: does not require a pollinator, but planting several trees is recommended for better cross-pollination. Chill requirement: 700 hours. Deciduous. |
