Prunus av. 'Sunburst' - Cherry - Organic fruit tree Half-standard

Prunus avium ‘Sunburst’ is a vigorous and highly productive organic half-standard cherry tree producing large, dark red and exceptionally sweet fruits. This popular variety is known for its excellent flavour, reliable cropping and self-fertile nature.

The cherries are very large, glossy dark red to almost black when fully ripe. The flesh is firm, juicy and intensely sweet with a rich aromatic flavour. ‘Sunburst’ is a premium dessert cherry, perfect for fresh eating, but also suitable for jams, juices and baking.

This organic half-standard fruit tree is ideal for medium-sized gardens. The half-standard form provides a clear trunk with a well-branched crown, making pruning and harvesting easier. The tree grows vigorously, flowers abundantly in spring and delivers consistent summer harvests.

‘Sunburst’ is self-fertile, meaning no second cherry tree is required for fruit production, making it ideal for smaller gardens.
