Description
The Cherry Tree, in Latin Prunus avium, belongs to the large family of Rosaceae, which includes most fruit trees, but also many ornamental plants. It is a medium-sized tree, reaching 5 to 10 m in height at maturity. Its rounded habit provides beautiful shade, very pleasant during the summer. Its alternate and toothed leaves are shiny and dark green, then they take on a pretty reddish hue in autumn before falling. Cherries are rich in vitamin C, minerals and trace elements.
The Cherry Tree 'Bladoróżowa' has rapid growth and forms a spreading crown. The tree reaches a height of 4 to 6 m. The white flowers with a slight pink hue appear in April. Its cherries ripen in June. They are large and take the shape of an elongated heart. They have a light yellow skin with a slight redness. The flesh is creamy, soft and very juicy, easily separating from the stone. The delicate fruit is prone to crushing. This cherry tree does not exhibit alternate bearing: its production is stable and abundant every year.
This cherry tree is not self-fertile, it requires pollination by another tree of a variety such as 'Stella', 'Burlat', 'Napoleon', or 'Bigarreau Noir'. 'Bladoróżowa' translates to "pale pink", this name was probably chosen due to the colour of the cherries.
Easy to grow, the cherry tree thrives in most soils, provided it receives some moisture. It even appreciates some damp if the soil is well-drained and thrives in full sun. The flowers are damaged by spring frosts, so plant cherry trees in a sheltered, west-facing position, protected from cold winds in regions that experience quite significant late frosts. Nevertheless, the very abundant flowering will still often lead to satisfactory fruiting.
The 'Bladoróżowa' cherry tree is a charming tree, delicious, ornamental, largely disease-resistant and almost maintenance-free. In this variety, resistant to bacterial canker, it is mainly fruit rot and brown rot that need to be monitored. The cherry tree can be planted on a lawn, at the back of a border or in an orchard, paired with apple trees, pear trees, plum trees and maybe a persimmon tree for a touch of originality.

Planting and care
The 'Bladoróżowa' Cherry Tree grows in any type of soil, whether acidic or calcareous. It appreciates moist, light soils and dislikes heavy, clayey soils. Choose a sunny location. To limit the risk of late frosts on the flowers, plant the Cherry Tree in a sheltered position, facing west and protected from cold winds in regions that experience spring frosts. Planting is preferably done in autumn. If you plant several trees, space them 4 to 5 m apart for trees shaped in goblets.
Loosen the soil deeply and remove rocks and weeds. Add some sand to improve drainage. Dig a hole 4 to 5 times the volume of the root ball. Keep the subsoil separate from the topsoil. Mix crushed horn or well-rotted compost or potting soil with the subsoil and pour this mixture into the planting hole. Install a stake. Place the root ball, cover with topsoil, and tamp down well. Water generously (approximately 10 L). Tie the stake to the plant, crossing the tie in a figure of 8, without touching the trunk.
During cultivation, watering is not necessary except in case of intense heat. Mulch at the base to retain moisture in summer. Protect your harvest by installing a bird net, aluminium foil sheets, or old CDs. In case of aphid infestation, spray water mixed with black soap. To combat cherry flies, set up sticky cardboard traps or pheromone traps as soon as cherries form on the tree.

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).
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 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.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
