The large green leaves of summer are soon ornamented with large bunches of sweet cherries, so deep a red they appear nearly black, which are ready to pick in July. The fruits are firm, juicy, and aromatic, and are delicious eaten fresh.  In autumn, the leaves turn orange and yellow for a bright show before they drop.

The trees eventual height is 100-150cms. You will not need an orchard for these dwarf patio fruit trees! Mini Cherry trees are specially bred varieties and produce large fruits on stems.

Sweet Cherry Sunburst is resistant to rain splitting. Pruned annually in early spring for new trees or midsummer for more established specimens to maintain an open crown for the best fruit production.
