Description
A classic sour cherry variety long favored for pies, preserves, and winemaking, Morello produces heavy crops of deep red fruit with richly tart, complex flavor. The juice and flesh are both dark red, creating beautifully colored desserts and sauces. Self-fertile and late-blooming (helpful for avoiding frost damage), it ripens in midsummer and thrives in Zones 4–9. Compact and productive, Morello is ideal for home orchards—easy to grow, highly ornamental in bloom, and a dependable favorite for those who love true old-fashioned cherry flavor.
