Prunus cerasus 'Jan'
Prunus cerasus ‘Jan’ is a hardy and vigorous sour cherry tree, prized for its deep red cherries with a sweet-tart balance, perfect for pies, jams, jellies, and fresh consumption. This cultivar is distinguished by its generous white blossoms in spring, followed by attractive green foliage that provides good structure to plantings. With a bushy to moderate habit, it integrates easily into family orchards, edible gardens, or landscape plantings in Quebec, and its medium size facilitates both planting and harvesting. Adapted to cold climates and well-drained soils, ‘Jan’ combines regular productivity, hardiness, and taste quality, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a compact, reliable, and flavorful cherry tree.
