Carmine Jewel Cherry vs Tango Weigela

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.

Tango Weigela is one of the smallest weigelas. Its compact form makes it ideal for urban yards or areas with limited space. The red, funnel shaped flowers with yellow throats are eye catching and fragrant. Good for borders, hedges, and foundation plantings, you'll love this new addition to your yard.
