Brooks Cherry Tree
Enjoy Sweet Red Cherries in Warmer Climates! The Brooks Cherry Tree is ideal for cherry-lovers in areas with milder climates. Similar to the Bing Cherry, the Brooks Cherry Tree features deep red color and sweet, slightly tart flavor. However, unlike similar cherry trees, the Brooks is a low chill alternative, meaning that it grows well in drier, warmer climates! What is a low-chill cherry tree? The Brooks Cherry Tree only needs 400 to 500 hours of chill - periods when temperatures drop below 45 degrees - in contrast to most sweet cherry trees, which need more than 700 hours. What’s more, the Brooks is a heavy producer, meaning that it’s ideal for cherry fans who live in warmer areas. Your cherries will also ripen earlier - as soon as April! Cherry lovers appreciate the Brooks for its firm texture and notes of blackberry. The fruit can be eaten straight from the tree or chopped up to be used in salads or sandwiches. Its tart flavor also makes it ideal for baking. The Brooks Cherry T
