Stella Cherry Tree

The Stella Cherry Tree is a small, Sweet Cherry tree that has excellent flavor, an abundant June crop and is unique because it does not need a second tree as a pollinator. This makes Stella a great choice for a smaller garden with limited room. It produces a heavy crop, and the cherries are dark red and juicy. Because of the small size of these special plants you can even grow it in a pot, meaning you don’t even need a garden to be picking your own cherries in a couple of years. Even the white blooms in spring are beautiful.

• Delicious sweet cherries with dark red flesh
• Big harvests ripening in June
• Self-pollinating, so a single tree bears well
• Easily grown in most gardens
• Needs some care and pruning for best results

Plant the Stella Cherry Tree in a sunny spot, in almost any well-drained soil. It is hardy in zone 5 and into the cooler end of zone 8, and of course everywhere in between. Some pest control may be necessary for the best results, and pruning is needed, but the reward of picking sun-warmed cherries straight from the tree makes it very worthwhile. This tree should begin to bear fruit in 2 years and give heavy crops in 3 or 4 years.
