BELONGS TO CATEGORIES Fruit trees

Tamara is an excellent Czech variety of an early sweet cherry tree. It produces very large fruit with diameter almost 3 cm and weight 12-14g. It is rich red to dark red and glossy, the flesh is more orange than yellow, crispy,very juicy, aromatic, and sweet. It is a cross between Krupnoplodnaja and Van. It sets fruit from early age, and harvest starts usually in early July.

It is self-sterile and requires a pollinator – another cherry tree to produce fruit. Pollinators must flower at the same time, and usually mature in the same pariod. Good pollinators are: Burlat, Celeste, Magda, Sandra, Samba, Amber,Vanda, or Granát.

It exhibits moderate vigour, and forms a strong and compact, rounded crown. Cherry trees like slightly acidic, humus rich, well drained but evenly moist soil. When the fruit is formed some extra watering is a help in dry seasons – cherry trees dislike drought. Fully hardy to min. -29°C.
