Our wonderful Cherry Duo Family Tree collection incorporates Cherry ‘Regina’ and Cherry ‘Hedelfinger’. Two popular varieties that generate high yields from July until August, of juicy, delicious fruits! Their sweet flavours and smooth texture, work in harmony together and sit well in a range of different culinary dishes. Easy to care for, enjoy this petite Prunus in a patio pot, kitchen, cottage or wildlife gardening scheme. Happy to develop in direct sunlight, watch the pair flourish to a maximum height of 4.5m, along with a spread of 2m. Imagine growing two different varieties of cherry on one tree!
Plant cherry trees in any well drained soil in a sheltered, sunny position. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the planting hole and drive the stake into the ground to support the tree. Staking after planting may result in damage to the root ball. Plant fruit trees at their original soil level and firm them into the ground. Fasten the tree to the stake using a tree tie, and water well.
When growing cherries on the patio, use a large 60cm (24″) diameter container filled with a soil based compost such as John Innes No 3.
