Thompson & Morgan

Another beauty from the breeder of the extremely popular Sweet Aperitif. Tasty cherry fruits are a distinctive reddish orange, with dark green shoulders, growing on long elegant trusses. Fruits ripen uniformly with heavy yields of up to 150 flavourful cherries per plant. Plants have a strong robust growth habit and are disease resistant.(Cordon variety - one stem grown by pinching off side-shoots as they appear, needs staking and tying in.)Tom says: We trial hundreds of new varieties every year in order to make sure only the very best varieties make it into our catalogue. The difference in flavours is incredible - from savoury cooking tomatoes to pure sweetness for snacking and every conceivable flavour combination in between, we have something for every taste bud and growing situation.Growing InformationSow March/April for greenhouse growing (or April for outdoors) in a propagator on a windowsill or in pots or trays in a greenhouse at 18-21°C (65-70°F) using a quality compost.
