After the neighbor's gigantic, majestic, aged apple tree fell on some of the trees, I ordered a "Meteor" pie cherry to replace the injured "North Star" pie cherry. The North Star may still survive, but I had a spot and it takes a while for a tree to gear fruit.
Meteor is described as a genetic dwarf, reaching 10 or 12 feet or so, heavy producer, self pollinating tart cherry.
This was from Burnt Ridge. I think the have the best quality bare root fruit trees around. This one was no exception to that.
I am intrigued by the sprouts on the rootstock. I cut them off. This rootstock - Mazzard - may be one tat makes a lot if suckers.
