Description
This product cannot be shipped to California.
The Brooks Cherry Tree is a relatively new patented variety that offers some outstanding qualities. Of which, its low chilling requirement of 400 - 500 hours is the most important. These low chill cherry trees make it possible for those living in the huge range of USDA Zone 8 to have the opportunity of growing delicious sweet cherries in their very own backyards. The Brooks Cherry Tree yields a large, dark red cherry very similar to Bing but with half the chill hour requirements to produce. Its flavor is sweet, rich and well-balanced. It's flesh is firm and crisp with luscious shades of red and pink. Its a semi-freestone cherry. Pollinates well with Coral, Kansas Sweet, and Tulare.

Zones
USDA Hardiness Zones
A hardiness zone is a geographic area defined as having a certain average annual minimum temperature, a factor relevant to the survival of many plants. In some systems other statistics are included in the calculations. The original and most widely used system, developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a rough guide for landscaping and gardening, defines 13 zones by long-term average annual extreme minimum temperatures. It has been adapted by and to other countries (such as Canada) in various forms. A plant may be described as "hardy to zone 10": this means that the plant can withstand a minimum temperature of −1.1 to 4.4 °C (30 to 40 °F).
Grows in zones: 6 - 8
