The pot of “Crimson” at the end of the rainbow for low-chill growers with small yards! New, long awaited, low-chill, self-fruitful sweet cherry, expected to be a home run for Zaiger Genetics. Bright crimson with superb flavor, this important new variety has the added benefit of blooming with other low chill varieties Minnie Royal and Royal Lee.

Will fruit without a pollinizing partner, but will set more fruit with a buddy. Estimated chill requirement only 200-300 hours.
