Description: Stella was the first self-fertile sweet cherry to appear that set a standard for modern high yielding varieties, for garden and orchard. Stella produces a heavy crop of large, dark red fruits which are sweet and juicy to taste. An excellent pollinator for other cherries. The best known dessert cherry in the UK and one you will most likely find on your local supermarket shelf!
