• Picking season: Mid mid / late July
• Self-fertility: Self-fertile

Sunburst is a good modern self-fertile cherry variety, with delicate flesh, and a good sweet mild cherry flavour. It is also easy to pick the large fruits.

Growing and Training

Sunburst is a precocious cherry variety, and starts bearing fruit within 2-4 years.

It is self-fertile, but if you want another cherry for pollination its flowering period exactly matches that of Stella.

History

Sunburst was developed by the Summerland research station in British Columbia, Canada and released in 1965. It is a cross between Van and Stella.
