Prunus cerasus ‘Surefire’
A surefire, easy-picking choice for the backyard grower and U-Pick marketers. Because it is very late flowering, it evades and tolerates frosts and annually produces large, crack-resistant crops. Skin, juice, and flesh are fire engine red. Its high sugar content make it excellent for eating fresh, and the vivid red makes the dried fruit look extra tasty! It ripens a week after Montmorency. So highly regarded, it is the first sour cherry introduced by the N.Y. Geneva Experiment station in 107 years. On Dwarf Gisela 5 rootstock.
Gisela 5 is a dwarfing rootstock, 50% of standard size, that induces heavy early fruit production. Trees can be maintained at 10 to 12 feet tall. Gisela 5 is more forgiving of shallow soils and a better choice than the even more dwarfing Gisela 3 for people with enough room for this somewhat larger tree.
