CUSTOM GROW
Carmine Jewel Cherry is a cold-hardy dwarf sour cherry. It is typically highly productive and one of the first varieties to ripen in summer. It produces deep red, tart fruit that are well-suited for fresh eating, baking, and preserves. In the spring, beautiful white flowers cover the branches, adding ornamental value.
Carmine Jewel Cherry was developed at the University of Saskatchewan. It is recommended to grow dwarf sour cherries as a shrub rather than a small tree. The shrub form tends to bear fruit earlier and is less susceptible to winterkill.
Sour cherries are self-fertile; however, planting with additional varieties for cross-pollination can increase yields.
Echinacea is a unique flowering plant. The tall stalks topped with badminton-birdie-like flowers make this plant a distinctive addition to any garden or yard.
Echinacea this drought tolerant and will attract bees, butterflies, birds and other wildlife.
