Cupid Cherry vs Boughens Golden ChokecherryPrunus x kerrasis Cupid Prunus virginiana Boughens Golden SOLD OUT SOLD OUT Cupid Cherry is a hardy deciduous hybrid shrub variety of Sour Cherry released in the Romance Series of dwarf sour cherries from the University of Saskatchewan in 2004. Cupid Cherry produces the largest fruit of all the sour cherries which is dark/red fruit and perfect for fresh eating but it tends to be a bit later than other varieties.
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. CUPID CHERRY QUICK FACTSBOUGHENS GOLDEN CHOKECHERRY QUICK FACTS
