Description
- Have your (cherry) cake and eat it too – Sunburst is a sweet, rich black cherry that’s not just for cooking but eating fresh too! In fact it was the original sweet black cherry. The OG.
- If you only have space for one cherry tree in your garden, we’d go for this one (don’t tell the other trees)
- Mid season harvest – your cherries will be ripe and ready to pick around the second or third week of July
- Self fertile (Pollination Group 4) – Sunburst will produce good crops all by itself without pollination by another tree
- Ultra reliable – Sunburst won’t let you down, run around or desert you. It’ll also produce a good yield of cherries year on year
- Good disease resistance, and laughs in the face of pests
- Can be grown in a pot
- Colt Rootstock: Max size H4m x W4m Rootstocks restrict the size of a tree to make it more suited for an average gardenMORE
- Cordon Trained: Max size H2m x W1m This tree has been pruned and trained to create a cordon shape, which will result in narrow upright tree, with only short side branches. This is perfect for smaller spaces, whilst still produces a good amount of fruitMORE
- Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
- 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
