Prunus Avium ‘Stella’ (Stella Cherry) is a highly regarded fruiting cherry tree prized for its abundant crops of large, sweet and juicy dark red cherries. In spring, the tree produces a beautiful display of delicate white blossoms, followed by lush green foliage that provides an attractive garden feature throughout the growing season. As a self-fertile variety, Stella can produce fruit without requiring another cherry tree for pollination, making it an excellent choice for home gardens where space may be limited.
Perfect for productive gardens, orchards and backyard fruit growing, Stella Cherry combines ornamental beauty with the reward of delicious home-grown fruit. Its reliable cropping, excellent fruit quality and attractive seasonal display make it a versatile addition to sunny garden spaces. Plant it in well-drained, fertile soil and enjoy spectacular spring flowers followed by flavoursome cherries that can be eaten fresh, used in desserts or preserved.
