Wild cherry, Mahaleb, Colt
Early June
The Summit variety was developed in Canada at the Summerland Research Institute, where varieties such as Stella, Van, and Sunburst were also created. It was produced by crossing Van x Sam in 1957 and released in 1973 by Dr. K.O. Lapins. This variety produces highly attractive fruits and offers excellent yields.
The flesh is juicy, sweet, and aromatic, with an excellent sugar-acid balance, delivering a dessert-like, winey flavor with a mild acidity.
The fruit is very large (weighing 9–10 grams, about 29 mm in diameter), heart-shaped, intensely red, with a small pit and shiny red skin. The flesh is medium-firm, juicy, sweet, and aromatic. Summit cherries have a small pit.
Schneider, Lapins, Sunburst, Van.
Resistant to low temperatures and has minimal issues with fruit cracking.
You can purchase seedlings of Cherry Summit at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.

Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
