Prunus avium 'Sunset Bing'
Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips

Sunset Bing® should be grown just like regular Bing cherry. It may not be as well suited to the eastern areas because of Bing parentage, but it may crack less because it ripens so late, usually well past many of the early summer rains.
