Description

The tried and tested variety of cherry tree ‘Black Tartarian’ has been around for a long time due to its good performance in the garden. Its drought-tolerance once established, and adaptability to varied soil conditions is prized in commercial and home gardens. Black Tartarian produces an abundance of sweet, tasty, dark red (almost black) cherries in the summer.

Not only is it easy to grow, ‘Black Tartarian’ is one of the first cherries to flower and fruit, with bunches of luscious, juicy fruit, perfect for eating fresh off the tree.

All cherry varieties are grafted on Mazzard root stock, a semi-dwarf variety with greater cold tolerance. Mazzard is more vigorous in poor soils allowing for greater success across the United States.
