Good morning,
I have just received my first delivery from you (various vegetable plants) and wanted to say how pleased I am with the quality of the plants you sent me! The plants arrived on the day you said they would, carefully packed and in very good condition. They were larger than I was expecting which made planting them really easy. Thank you too for the helpful information about planting enclosed with each plant as well. I shall be recommending you to all my friends and family! Your website is very good too!

The most important benefits of this fairly new (bred 1990) variety is that not only does it fruit late, the fruit ripens over a couple of weeks making that 'all coming at once' scenario a thing of the past!
The cheerful bright red fruits have a lovely sweet flavour, with just an under-taste of acid, making fro a really refreshing bite. An excellent variety that we really cannot recommend enough.
- Originated from Canada.
- Self Fertile - but pollination by another cherry will maximise yield.
- Grown on Colt rootstock for an ultimate (un-pruned) height of 8 - 12 feet (2.4 - 3.65 metres) but can easily be kept at a height of 6 - 8 feet (1.8 - 2.4 metres).
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
Recommended by the RHS to assist in encouraging bats into the garden as the flowers are likely to attract moths and other night-flying insects which bats love to eat!
