Description
The Cherry tree Butter Späte Knorpelkirsche or Cherry tree BSK is a remarkable variety that stands out for its generous fruiting of large, very red and aromatic cherries.
Description and characteristics: The Prunus avium Butter Späte Knorpelkirsche is a medium-sized fruit tree, reaching a height at maturity of 4 meters and a width of 3.5 meters. Its vigorous growth gives it a pyramidal shape, taller than it is wide, making it an ideal choice even for small gardens. The flowering period extends from March to May, offering a spectacle of white flowers that will not fail to beautify your garden.
The cherries produced by this tree are very large, of an attractive dark red, with firm and extremely aromatic flesh. Their sweet flavour is very popular, whether eaten fresh or used in the preparation of preserves, jams and compotes. The fruit is harvested in July, promising unforgettable tasting moments.
It is important to note that the Cherry tree Butter Späte Knorpelkirsche is not self-fertile. For optimal fruiting, it is advisable to plant it near pollinating varieties such as Burlat, Hedelfinger Riesenkirsche or Regina. This association will promote good pollination and, therefore, an abundance of fruit.
To grow this cherry tree, choose a sunny location and slightly cool soil. It is hardy and resists cold well (-29°C), which makes it suitable for various climatic conditions. When planting, make sure that the soil is well drained and rich in organic matter to stimulate the growth of the tree.
To obtain a bountiful harvest, it is essential to provide your cherry tree with regular care. This includes adequate watering in its early years, during dry periods. Pruning after fruiting in August (optional) to maintain the shape of the tree and in late autumn to remove dead or tangled branches. Mulching at the base of the tree can help conserve soil moisture.
The Cherry tree Butter Späte Knorpelkirsche is a valuable addition to any garden or orchard. Not only does it provide a pleasing aesthetic with its spring blooms, but it also promises a harvest of succulent cherries.
