Trees - Cherry Morel

Morello cherries are pickable when their skin is dark red. At this stage the cherries are sour and should be cooked. If the cherry is left on the tree into August it will be edible off the tree.

It tolerates the colder and wetter conditions than the sweet cherry. It grows well against wall including north facing ones.

Prunus cerasus- ‘Morel’ is self-fertile. All sour cherries carry next years fruit on this year’s new growth.

Suitable for small gardens.
