Cherry ‘Celeste’

With a naturally dwarf growth habit, this Cherry will fit into the smallest of gardens – you can even grow it in a container on the patio! It’s self fertile too, so there’s no need for a pollination partner. Cherry ‘Celeste’ is an early variety, producing good crops of large, dark red-black cherries with a sweet, juicy flavour. The fruits are best eaten straight from the tree in mid-July.
