Cherry Prinsepia vs Cutie Pie Sour Cherry
Prinsepia sinensis
Prunus cerasus Cutie Pie
CUSTOM GROW
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON - MIGHT RETURN
Cherry Prinsepia is an attractive, cold hardy shrub with thorny stems and a rounded shape.
Primarily used for its shrub and hedge characteristics, Cherry Prinsepia is also grown for its ornamental fruit. Tart in flavor, the red berries are edible and enjoyed by birds and humans alike.
If deer are an issue on your property, try planting Cherry Prinsepia in a tight row to create a dense hedge to deter them.
The Cutie Pie Sour Cherry produces fruit that are sweeter than other sour cherry varieties. Good for fresh eating and for making jams and jellies. They are small in stature (shrub like) and multi stemmed, which makes for a good hedge.
They are cold hardy and are a hybrid of Mongolian and European sour cherries, produced by the University of Saskatchewan.
They have small, attractive, white flowers. Cutie Pie Sour Cherry trees are self pollinating and require moist, well-drained soil. For better yields, plant compatible cultivars such as the Romeo Cherry nearby.
