Dwarf Cherry Tree Cherry Boop
Prunus Cherry Boop®
Cherry
Cultivated since 2018, I'm going to resign myself to pulling it out... A shame, it's true that the tree is truly dwarf. But the branches, covered in many flowers in spring, have once again mostly ended up dried out, attacked by fire blight. And the few cherries that ripen are sour; less tasty than those from my morello cherry tree...

Description
The Cherry Boop Cherry Tree (Prunus x Cherry Boop) is an exceptional dwarf fruit tree that combines several qualities: small size, quick fruiting, excellent taste, and great hardiness.
Cherry Boop is a recent Canadian hybrid. Derived from the Mongolian Cherry (Prunus fruticosa, in the Rosaceae family), this variety has a compact habit and a very reasonable growth reaching only 2 metres (7 feet) in height. As a result, it is suitable for all gardens, from large to small, and can be grown as a fruit hedge or in pots on terraces. This small fruit tree is also known for its great hardiness, as it can withstand temperatures as low as -20 to -25 °C.
Self-fertile, Cherry Boop does not require another variety for pollination, so it can be planted alone. It begins to bear fruit very quickly, usually within one or two years.
In late April or early May, the Cherry Boop Cherry Tree is covered with small white flowers that appear before the leaves. This beautiful flowering, which is not very sensitive to late frosts, gives way to numerous fruits of excellent taste in July. After 4 to 5 years, this cherry tree produces, on average, about fifteen kilograms per year.
These cherries are very sweet, with small stones and weighing about 4 grams. When fully ripe, they can stay on the tree for up to two weeks before being harvested. You can enjoy them fresh after picking or use them for making pies, clafoutis, jams, and other preserves. Cherries are rich in vitamin C, minerals, and trace elements.
Note that the harvest may vary in abundance from year to year and may exhibit alternating cycles, allowing the bush to replenish its reserves.

Planting and care
Easy to grow, the Cherry tree grows in all types of soil, acidic or chalky. It appreciates moist, light soils and fears heavy, clay soils. Choose a sunny exposure. In order to limit the risks of late frost on the flowers, it is recommended to plant the Cherry tree in a sheltered location, facing west and protected from cold winds in regions that experience spring frosts. Planting is preferably done in autumn. If you plant multiple trees, space them 1 metre (3 feet) apart for dwarf varieties.
Loosen the soil deeply, remove rocks and unwanted weeds. Add some sand to improve drainage. Dig a hole 4 to 5 times the volume of the root ball. Make sure to separate the subsoil from the topsoil. Mix bonemeal or well-rotted compost or potting soil with the subsoil and pour this mixture into the bottom of the planting hole. Install a stake. Place the root ball, cover with the topsoil and tamp down well. Water generously (about 10L). Tie the stake to the plant, crossing the tie in the shape of an 8, without touching the trunk.
During cultivation, watering is not necessary except in case of high heat. Mulch at the base to retain moisture in summer. Protect your harvest by installing, as desired, a bird net, aluminum foil or old CDs. In case of aphid attack, spray with soapy water.
For container planting: place a layer of gravel or clay pebbles at the bottom of the pot to facilitate drainage. Add a layer of soil and then place the plant and cover with a mixture of 2/3 garden soil, 1/3 potting soil or well-rotted compost. Every spring, remove the top layer and replace it with fresh potting soil. Water regularly and moderately. At the end of autumn, protect the pot with insulation before winter frosts.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
