The Utah Giant cherry is more flavorful, larger and more firm than a Bing or a Lambert. When comparing or choosing sweet cherries, the Utah Giant should be part of your selection process. The flesh color is dark red and very sweet. Just pick right off the tree and enjoy.
The Utah Giant is a great western disease-resistant variety that blooms with the Bing cherry. This cherry does not create doubles. A pollinator is required, and will be pollinated by another sweet cherry variety.
