PRUNUS ROMEO
Grower Notes:
Prunus fruticosa x Prunus cerasus 'Romeo' is commonly referred to as Romeo™ Bush Cherry. This self-fertile dwarf cherry tree or large shrub features dark red fruit that can be used in cooking, preserves, wine-making, canning or eating fresh. It is hardy down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit and can produce up to 30 pounds of fruit per season. Flowers appear mid spring with harvest in early to midsummer. It is self-fertile but does pair nicely with the Juliet™ Dwarf Cherry. When paired, the two dark-sweet cherries really extend your harvest with larger yields.
Juliet™ Cherry Tree thrives in full sun in evenly moist, well-draining soils. It will not tolerate standing water.
