Prunus cerasus 'Carmine Jewel'
Prunus cerasus 'Carmine Jewel' is an exceptionally hardy and productive dwarf cherry tree, resulting from a cross between Prunus fruticosa and Prunus cerasus, which gives it a compact size suitable for small spaces and excellent cold resistance. Its white to pink spring blossoms precede the appearance of small, dark reddish-purple, juicy, and tart Morello-type cherries, ideal for jellies, jams, pies, or fresh consumption. Thanks to its dense bushy habit, it easily integrates into edible gardens, fruit hedges, and family orchards, while simplifying harvesting due to its reduced height. Self-fertile and with reliable production, it tolerates well-drained to moist soils and requires a sunny exposure to reach its full potential. This cherry tree is an excellent choice for Quebec gardeners looking for hardiness, compactness, and abundant fruit.
