Sunburst Cherry

Description

Sunburst is a modern variety of sweet Cherry introduced from Canada in 1984. It has very large fruits of excellent flavour, which turn black when ripe. It is supposed to have a very heavy yield of fruit, although we have yet to see any. The fruit will store well for a short period after picking.
