Lapins Cherry is a delicious self-fertile cherry variety known for its large, deep red fruits with an exceptional balance of sweetness and a hint of tartness. Developed in Canada, Lapins thrives in both home orchards and small farms, delivering generous yields of firm, juicy cherries perfect for fresh eating, baking, and preserving. It has excellent crack resistance and is less susceptible to frost damage than many other cherries, making it a great choice for areas with variable spring weather. A late-blooming variety, Lapins Cherry extends the harvest season into early summer and enhances biodiversity by supporting local pollinators.

Key Characteristics:

  • Outstanding Fruit Qualities: Produces large, dark red cherries with a firm texture and a sweet-tart balance, excellent for fresh eating, baking, and canning. This variety's fruits are highly crack-resistant, which ensures high-quality yields even in wet conditions.

  • Self-Fertile and Prolific: Lapins Cherry is self-fertile, so it doesn't require a pollination partner. However, planting it alongside other sweet cherry varieties can increase yield, making it ideal for orchards with limited space.

  • Pollinator Friendly: Late bloom attracts bees and other pollinators, enhancing your garden's biodiversity and extending available food sources for beneficial insects during the season.

  • Reliable in Varied Climates: Originating from Canada, Lapins Cherry performs well in cooler climates, and is noted for its frost resilience during bloom, ensuring better fruit set and reliable yields in spring.

  • Versatile Orchard Addition: Thrives in sunny orchards, gardens, and permaculture designs, offering both edible and aesthetic value with its spring blossoms and lush foliage. Perfect for integrating into food forests and mixed fruit tree guilds.

Product Details:

  • Sun Requirements: Full sun
  • Soil Requirements: Well-drained, loamy soil; tolerates medium to slightly acidic soils
  • Bloom Time: Late season
  • Bloom Color: White
  • Fruit Qualities: Firm, dark red, juicy, sweet-tart flavor

With its sweet and juicy fruits, reliable self-fertility, and late-season bloom, Lapins Cherry is a valuable addition to any orchard, whether for home gardening or small-scale farming.
