CERASINA ™ Final 13.1 (S)
Sweet cherry, Prunus avium
Very late ripening, self-fertile variety, which has very good storage qualities and is therefore well suited to extend the picking season. There is a slight bitterness that dissipates as the fruits ripen. This variety needs thorough pruning of weak and hanging branches. The very healthy tree shows no susceptibility to bacterial canker.
If you are interested to plant CERASINA™-varieties outside of the Netherlands or Germany we need the authorisation of the license holder.
