Sweetheart Sweet Cherry 1 Live Tree – 5 Gallon Pot – Prunus avium 'Sweetheart'

Sweetheart Sweet Cherry (Prunus avium 'Sweetheart') is a deciduous fruit tree valued for its attractive spring blossoms and flavorful, sweet red cherries. This late-season sweet cherry cultivar produces firm, heart-shaped fruit with red skin and juicy flesh, making it a desirable addition to home orchards and edible landscapes.

In spring, the tree produces clusters of delicate white flowers before developing its seasonal foliage and fruit. Sweetheart is a self-fertile sweet cherry cultivar, meaning it can produce fruit without a separate pollinating variety, although flowering and fruit production depend on climate, weather, and growing conditions. Its cherries typically ripen later than many other sweet cherry varieties.

Sweetheart Sweet Cherry performs best in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. It prefers moderate moisture and requires sufficient winter chilling for reliable flowering and fruit production. This cultivar is suited to temperate growing regions where sweet cherries can receive adequate winter dormancy.
