Other notes:

Very vigorous

Its bright red skin and flesh, unlike many Cherries, will turn its final color before its ripe so resist the urge to pick fruit when the color seems just right to you...give it a couple extra weeks on the tree for best taste

Care:

Feed twice a year with a slow release fertilizer. Fertilize in early spring before growth starts and late fall after the leaves have fallen and the ground isn't yet frozen. (5 minutes of work)

Prune in late winter to remove crossing branches and promote good airflow to encourage fruiting. (5-10 minutes of work) our tree.

Make sure you cover your tree as its fruit matures to ward off marauding birds trying to steal your sweet fruit!
