Growing & Maintenance Tips
Plant in average to evenly moist conditions, in full sun. Stella cherry is a self-pollinating cultivar; it does not require a second plant nearby to set fruit. It can be used to pollinate other sweet cherries. If another cherry tree is planted nearby, Stella will be more prolific, producing larger fruit.
Notes
The botanical name for Stella Cherry has been updated from Cherry x 'Stella' to Prunus avium 'Stella'.
