Garfield Plantation Pie Cherry 'Garfield Plantation'

Very Hardy and vigorous tree, bore some fruit in its 3rd year and seems to be bearing quite well in its 4th. Makes some suckers, but they...Read More are very manageable. Here is what fedco says about it:
Summer Bearing. Unknown origin. Garfield Plantation, ME. Heirloom pie cherry grown for generations on an Aroostook County farm. One of our most promising finds in our search for varieties that really do produce. In the spring of ’09 trees in northern Maine flowered and fruited after –44°. Friends introduced it to me a few years ago. Although the original tree is long gone, it lives on in the form of innumerable young trees that have suckered up for 100 feet or more behind the farm along the edge of the ubiquitous potato field. You could keep it to a single tree yourself by snipping off any suckers. Hardy, disease resistant, productive and extremely long-lived
