Prunus avium Lapins

Cherry tree

A sweet cherry variety, prized for its large, firm, juicy, sweet red to black cherries, ideal for fresh consumption, as well as for making jams and pies. The fruit is of superior quality, with a sweet, mild flesh. This cultivar is disease resistant and produces a consistent crop of fruit. Self-sterile, it is recommended to plant another cherry variety to ensure cross-pollination. It begins to produce fruit about 4 to 6 years after planting. Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering. Pruning is done in late winter or early spring, before the vegetation restarts. Remove dead or weak branches to encourage healthy growth and better air circulation.
