One of the absolute best green-fruited cherry varieties.<\/p>\n<p>It only has one major plus, but it&#8217;s a huge one &#8211; it doesn&#8217;t get hit by leaf mold. Its biggest minus is that it cracks from irregular watering.<\/p>\n<p>The variety is sweet and highly productive.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, in 2022, I decided not to plant it &#8211; and it popped right up as a volunteer in the greenhouse. I don&#8217;t grow anything else like it, so it was definitely it. Unheated greenhouse.<\/p>\n<p>Here are photos of this volunteer. It only managed to ripen three big trusses, the rest didn&#8217;t have time &#8211; basically, you definitely want to start this one from transplants like normal.<\/p>\n<p>When grown properly from transplants, I think I counted 13 trusses on three stems once.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a plant with a massive thirst for growth. Very vigorous. Very responsive to feeding. Reluctant to drop its blossoms in the heat. It doesn&#8217;t like being out in the open dirt &#8211; it just stalls out there, so it&#8217;s much better to plant it in a greenhouse.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2023_01\/119515827_2617262828525705_6990212587580545812_n.jpeg.106298d1168c3a861a60819408eeaefb.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2023_01\/119515827_2617262828525705_6990212587580545812_n.thumb.jpeg.72bbbbb8ddc122651070010eca97a56d.jpeg\" alt=\"Green Doctors volunteer plant, photo posted by Ellis_Cu (1)\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2023_01\/370b51a5-968b-4848-880b-d03259a4afc6.jpeg.97b0e2f26794cde1a09ec64a97c3a30e.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2023_01\/370b51a5-968b-4848-880b-d03259a4afc6.thumb.jpeg.59aebaf4f3e235e8011a1b0dac315780.jpeg\" alt=\"Green Doctors truss close up, photo posted by Ellis_Cu (2)\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- 5.
