Montmorency Cherry Tree – Trees for cross pollination: Black York, Bing, Stella, & Rainier. Height: 12–15 ft, Width: 10–15 ft. Interest: Fruit in late June to early July. Montmorency Cherry is the most widely grown tart cherry variety, known for its bright red fruit, classic tart flavor, and exceptional performance in pies, jams, juices, and baking. Its fruit is juicy and tender with a well-balanced acidity that intensifies when cooked or preserved. This dependable variety is highly productive and widely adapted, making it a staple in home orchards. In spring, it produces a flush of fragrant white blossoms that create beautiful seasonal interest before setting fruit in early summer.

Maintenance Tip:
Prune lightly after fruiting (or in late winter for young trees) to maintain structure and remove dead or crowded branches. Water regularly during dry spells, especially while fruit is developing, and fertilize in early spring to support growth. Netting may be needed to protect ripening fruit from birds.
