Evans Cherry
Ussurian Pear (Siberian)

Evans Cherry is a cold-hardy sour cherry tree that is typically highly productive. It produces bright red, tart fruit that are well suited to fresh eating, baking, and preserves. In the spring, beautiful white flowers cover the branches, adding ornamental value.

Evans Cherry was developed in Alberta. It was rediscovered in 1976 near Edmonton, AB, by Dr. Ieuan Evans.

Sour cherries are self-fertile; however, planting with additional varieties for cross-pollination can increase yields.

Ussurian Pear is the most cold hardy of all pear species. It is frequently used as a rootstock or as a pollinizer for other pear varieties. The pinkish-white flowers that bloom in the spring and the striking fall colours make it well-suited as an ornamental addition to your landscape.

Ussurian Pear can also be used for forming hedges as it tends to branch quite low.

While the Ussurian Pear is considered self-pollinating, planting with another pear variety will increase yields. Can be paired with Krazulya Pear or Beedle Pear.
