Carmine Jewel Dwarf Cherry Tree

Carmine Jewel Dwarf Cherry Tree

Tastes Better Than Any Other
Cherry, Including Sweet Cherries!

  (38 customer reviews)



Truly the perfect cherry, Carmine Jewel has large, gorgeous purplish-red fruit with a luscious balance of high sugars and a complement of acids, creating a rich flavor. Fruit has high flesh-to-pit ratio and is excellent for use in pies, preserves, juice, dried fruit and eating fresh. Yields up to 15+ pounds by its fourth year, and 20-30 pounds in its fifth year. Growing to only 6 1/2 ft. tall, this is a naturally dwarfed bush with full-sized fruit—much easier to maintain than typical cherries. Carmine Jewel is grown on its own roots, so you get no suckers of inferior quality root stock. Extreme cold hardiness and few problems from disease and pests make this beauty a breeze to grow.
Abundant, white and pink flowers and glossy, green leaves allow it to double as an ornamental in your landscape in early spring.
Carmine Jewel Exhibits Hardiness into Zone 2b. However, due to the newness of this cultivar, regional testing has not been completed, so no data as to Southern adaptability is available. Remember our Lifetime Guarantee applies to Carmine Jewel. Self-pollinating. Potted.
Not available in CA, OR, WA.

This item ships at the proper planting time for your region in both spring and fall.
If the current shipping season is closed, your order will ship at the proper time in the next season.

Yes California, I gess I bought one before the state once again restricted this tree. I rate the tree a 4 right now, I have had it in my high desert ground since fall of 2010. It has grown all most 2feet, mulched it with compost over the light winter. Water once a week, sofar it is starting to bush out, with bright green, glossy leaves. I gess I will need to take cuttings to produce another one. Looking forward to this years growth. So far happy with results.

I just received my Carmine Jewel tree today. It is not a tree. States that it is dormant - it is fully leafed. I read the other reviews today and will wait and see how it does. Will plant in garden for the first year so I can take extra care of it. The blueberry plant I bought at the same time is bigger. It also is fully leafed but was suppose to be dormant. Will pot it also.

Bought two of these last summer, they were tiny to say the least. They didn't survive, two dead twigs this spring.
