'Sunburst Improved' Patio Cherry Tree
- 'Sunburst Improved' is a fabulous variety in the first place; add to that the Wonder Tree growing method and you're left with something truly special.
- Wonder Trees are grown in an innovative fashion, with the grafting process taking place higher up the tree, giving an attractive, straight trunk and more compact overall height.
- Growing to an eventual height of less than two metres and self-fertile, this is the perfect fruit tree to grow on the patio or balcony, or in gardens where space is more limited.
- This mid-season variety boasts an abundance of scrummy cherries in the summer, delicious both eaten fresh and used in cooking and baking recipes.

Meet Mike's trusted specialists
Start with a touch of continental sun
Over 99% of our plants are grown in the UK, but where that’s not possible, Mike sources the best specialist growers in Europe for the job. Think citrus warmed by Sicilian sun, topiary trained by Dutch masters, almonds nourished in the Dordogne and bamboo bathed in Tuscan heat. Our handpicked growers nurture these plants to maturity before handing over to our team in the Cotswolds, to toughen them up for UK gardens.
