Black cherries
Black cherries, also known as “industrial cherries,” are sour cherry varieties specially bred for mechanical harvesting.
They play an important role in professional fruit growing—especially where economical and time-saving harvesting for processing is a priority.
We offer high-performance black cherry varieties with consistently high yields, robust tree health, and excellent suitability for full harvesters.
Our trees are specifically selected for professional use in orchards and are suitable for both new plantings and stock renewal.
- Varieties that are easy to shake mechanically with uniform fruit ripening
- High and regular yields for industrial processing
- Robust, scab-tolerant varieties for economical cultivation
Planting distance and rootstock selection are determined by the harvesting technique.
The rootstock descriptions can be found under sweet cherries.
