An early variety for picking late June and July. One of the largest cherries of all, yellow spread with crimson. This variety does not crack easily in wet weather. Ideal pollinators are: Merton Bigarreau, Early Rivers, Noir de Guben and Morello. Like all of the Merton prefix varieties, which were all raised at the John Innes Institute, this variety is outstanding.







We have in place very rigorous standards for the health,
providence and uniformity of all our fruiting plants & trees. Our Nursery and the stock we grow is
inspected and passported for health regularly by DEFRA experts [formerly the Ministry of Agriculture]
and we have in place our own stringent controls and inspection programmes to ensure our fruiting
bushes and trees are the best, most disease free stocks available and truly beyond compare.
We always propagate from certified stock where this exists and have the highest standards regarding providence
and grading. If only the very best will do – as it should – then you can rely on a Chris Bowers fruiting
plant to give the most exemplary results available. We firmly believe that only the very healthiest
stock can and does produce vastly superior results – and it shows.
