The Sam Cherry Tree is a beautiful medium-sized cherry with a very dark-red skin that doesnāt crack, and bright red flesh that is firm, juicy, and balanced for sweetness and acidity. On a tree that will become 15 feet tall and wide within 10 years, you can look forward to harvests of 50 pounds or more. With a fantastic, strong, lingering cherry flavor, they are ready to eat fresh, back into pies, or turn into preserves. The beautiful snow-white blossoms in spring earn this tree a place in your flower garden.
Full sun or some partial shade suit the Sam Cherry Tree perfectly. Grow it in any well-drained soil, and it has a preference for neutral to acidic loam soils. Any pest or disease issues are normally very minor, and a good crop is easy to grow. Prune in late winter to develop an open crown and stimulate new shoots. Needs a suitable pollinizer variety ā we recommend the Stella cherry.
