description for "Cherry: Prunus avium 'Stella'"
'Stella' is self-pollinating, so you only need one tree. You'll get plump, deep red cherries, plenty for both fresh snacks and canning. The tree grows 15 to 18 ft. and delivers a terrific batch of delicious cherries. Fruit ripens in mid-June in Zone 6. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
