-Full Sun to Part Shade– Full size on seedling rootstock, space 15′-25′ apart, self fertile
This tree claims its parentage from Southern Indiana wild-growing mulberries. The earliest fruiting of the trees we have producing right now. Great producer of sweet but flavorful dark lavender fruit. Juice is less-staining than black fruited mulberries, but not completely clear. Has a more berry-like flavor than your typical non-staining white or lavender fruit (which tend to be very sweet but bland) – almost as flavorful as black mulberry fruits. Short but fat berries. Non-grafted, it roots very easily from cuttings. Self fertile.

I find sour cherries simply delightful to eat fresh off the tree, despite any reputation otherwise. If too tart for your taste buds, don’t fret; they can be put to a hundred other delicious uses in cooking, baking, drying, preserving, etc. Sour cherries are large and can be easily pitted with any version of standard cherry pitters. Sour cherries share the spotlight with pears as the easiest to produce of the traditional tree fruits in the Midwest without any sprays (though birds can be a problem, eating the crop as soon as it ripens). Sour cherries will even tolerate little to no pruning if that sounds like a daunting task to you. A sour cherry in bloom is a stunning sight, and has a nice natural growth form. Grafted onto Mazzard seedling rootstock, which does better in heavy wet soils than Mahaleb. gallon pot* $16 +tax
