Carmine Jewel Cherry vs Boughens Golden ChokecherryPrunus x kerrasis Carmine Jewel Prunus virginiana Boughens Golden SOLD OUT SOLD OUT
Carmine Jewel Cherry is a hardy deciduous shrub and hybrid variety of the University of Saskatchewan Sour Cherry. It produces dark, black cherries with small pits that are good for pies and wine making. The hardiest of the dwarf sour cherry varieties, Carmine Jewel Cherry is a beautiful accent or landscape/orchard tree.
Boughen's Golden Chokecherry typically grows into a shrub form with yellow fruit and beautiful green foliage. This type of chokecherry is particularly sweet because it is non-astringent, meaning that it does not produce tannins. Tannins are what create the puckering, or sour taste when eating something unripe. CARMINE JEWEL CHERRY QUICK FACTSBOUGHENS GOLDEN CHOKECHERRY QUICK FACTS
