Stella Cherry Tree For Sale Near Me

Cherry Stella

The 'Stella' Cherry is a popular variety due to its consistent yields of large, dark red-purple fruit in summer. The flesh is dark red, sweet, and juicy. Single white flowers in early spring give rise to the tasty fruit. However, this variety requires a cold winter for the flower buds to form properly so 'Stella' is less suited to warmer regions. It also does not require another variety planted alongside to produce fruit. The lush foliage emerges mid-green in spring, ages to dark green, then develops yellow, orange, and red tones in autumn before falling. It grows as an upright tree to about 5 m tall and 3 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site. 'Stella' is commonly used for fruit production and also makes for an attractive specimen.
