Cherry Information

Prunus cerasus or “Sour Cherry”

True sour cherries are native to Europe and have the scientific name of Prunus cerasus. In an effort to make them sound more appealing, growers in the United States have been calling them tart cherries. These cherries are often 5-8 m. (15 - 25 ft) tall and usually cannot survive in the Canadian Prairies.

A noticeable exception is the Evan’s Cherry which may be among the more cold tolerant of its species and shorter than other sour cherries.
We grow two variaties of cherry

    * Nanking: a small cherry with a relatively large pit. Best used for their juice. Our Nanking bushes suffered what appears to be, significant die off this winter so we\'re not sure yet how many, if any, we\'ll have in 2005.
    * Evans Cherry: our largest cherry and most prolific producer. Best for processing although some enjoy them fresh. Particularly children who enjoy \"sour candies\".

We have 50 Evans Cherry trees. The few that were damaged by deer and rabbits was insignificant. We do not take any action to prevent wildlife damage.

Thanks,
