Tart Cherry with Rich Flavor and High Yield
Cherry ‘Carmine Jewel’ is a hardy, tart cherry variety known for its rich, deep-red fruit and exceptional flavor. This compact shrub produces high yields of small, but flavorful cherries that are perfect for pies, jams, and other preserves. With a robust growth habit and early ripening, ‘Carmine Jewel’ is ideal for northern climates, thriving in colder zones. Its self-pollinating nature and disease resistance make it an easy-care addition to the home garden.

Why Choose Cherry ‘Carmine Jewel’?

Care Instructions

Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
