Description
- A very popular dessert cherry with a firm flesh and sweet flavour
- If you looked up the colour ‘cherry red’, you’d find a picture of ‘Van’!
- Resistant to cracking
- Easy to grow for bumper crops
- Not just delicious to eat fresh, ‘Van’ is also great for cooking, jams and liqueurs
- Mid season – harvest in July and early August
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
