The Evans Cherry is a sour cherry, growing from 12 to 14 feet (3.7 to 4.3 m) high – other sour cherries are taller – with abundant white blossoms in spring, bright red fruit at an average weight of 0.15 ounces (4.4 grams), and juice that is pink-tinted to clear. Best trained as a tree rather than bush to make harvest of fruit easiest, the Evans Cherry will self pollinate, but a second cherry tree of a different variety is needed for a productive harvest, but a more bountiful harvest results when you have a Prunus x Cistena or Prunus tomemtosa with which to cross pollinate.
