Fan trained Cherry trees are used against a wall; you will need not less than 180 x 180cm’s for a fan tree. Please note we do not supply ready trained trees; this Amber Heart cherry is a young tree suitable for training yourself, in situ. Such trees usually settle to cropping within 2 or 3 seasons. Dessert Cherries will usually require a sunny south or west facing aspect; the cooking variety ‘Morello’ can be used to utilize a less promising North or East facing aspect.
Amber Heart has been the predominant white cherry commercially for some years as it's fruits are of good quality and have a superb flavour. It makes quite a spreading tree of good vigour.
The outer skin is a pretty pinky-red blush over cream; white cherries are so-called because the inner flesh is near-white and usually very sweet.
This variety requires a pollinator, such as:
Stella
Sunburst
Merton Glory
Lapins
