Description
Lapins Cherry is a large shrub that is commonly grown for its edible qualities. It produces red round fruit (technically ‘drupes’) with dark red flesh which are usually ready for picking in early summer. The fruit will often fade to black over time. Note that the fruits have hard inedible pits inside which must be removed before eating or processing. The fruits have a sweet taste and a juicy texture. | allowBackOrders: no | pfid: PRUCHLA0007G
