Prunus avium Van

Large sweet cherry
The Van is a delicious sweet cherry. The fruit is large and dark red in color.

Pollination
Self-pollinating

Pruning
After harvest, never in winter. Cherries are real growers, but if you want to keep the tree small, prune back all newly grown shoots so that 4 or 5 leaves remain. Continue to do this until the end of the growing season.

Fertilization
Give organic-mineral fertilizer in February and autumn.
