Carmine Jewel Bush Cherry - NEW!!!

The ideal bush cherry for backyard growing!  Produces a real, full-size SWEET red-black cherry with excellent fresh eating quality.  We say 'real' because there have been other bush cherries available over the years that produce small 'cherry-like' fruit unlike your typical, large, tasty market cherries.  This Canadian developed bush stays small and bush form, but produces full size cherries.  Choose 'Romeo' and/or 'Juliet' for the necessary cross pollination (or buy our Romance Cherry 3 pack).  This is not a plant for hot summer, Southern regions. 

Over 50 years of breeding work by Dr. Les Kerr have combined cold hardiness, dwarf stature and good fruit quality into the final product. The cherry releases by the University of Saskatchewan are a great tasting cherry with high sugar content. They also have very good potential for mechanical harvesting which is necessary for commercial fruit production.

Due to import restrictions we are unable to ship cherries to CA, OR, WA.
