Early June
The Herc - Hedelfingen cherry is increasingly cultivated due to its high yields, fruit quality, and resistance. It is primarily used for fresh consumption and preserving. Thanks to its unique organoleptic properties and aroma, it is considered one of the most attractive cherry varieties in the region.
The flesh is sweet-sour, crisp, and very flavorful.
Herc cherries are medium-sized, weighing around 8 grams, and have an intense red color. The heart-shaped fruit gives the variety its name. The skin is glossy, elastic, and dark red, darkening further as it ripens. The flesh is dark red, firm, and crisp, of excellent quality. The cherries contain good amounts of fiber, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins A and C. They are rich in sugars but not overly caloric and contain flavonoids, which help combat free radicals.

You can purchase seedlings of Cherry Herc - Hedelfingen 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.
