Cherry Fruit Tree Rainier (sweet)

Cherry Fruit Tree Rainier
Prunus avium ‘Rainier’

One of the most in-demand varieties, for both its taste and beauty. Generous crop of very large, golden-yellow cherries with a red blush.

Resists splitting and tolerates hot summers. Outstanding flavour. Bud-hardy and crack-resistant. Excellent for baking, canning, freezing and eating out of hand.

Early harvest. All dead branches must be eliminated to prevent diseases. For young plants, a regular supply of water is required, mainly in drought periods. Install tree-guard on the trunk in fall.

Pollinator required: for example, Skeena sweet cherry
