Early Richmond Tart Cherry

Prunus cerasus 'Early Richmond'
  • Summary
  • Hardiness Zone & More

Early Richmond Tart Cherry is a medium size, juicy, bright red fruit with thin, light red skin. The trees are strong, helthy, self-pollinating heavy producers. This is the leading sour variety that ripens at lease one week prior to other pie cherries, like Montmorency.

Early Richmond is also known as the English Pie Cherry and may be an earlier ripening mutation of Montmorency, which originated in France. They resemble each other in almost all ways except harvest time.
