Vega Cherry Trees

Prunus avium Vega Cherry Trees

Vega is a really big, sweet cherry with a succulent, pale centre and red and gold skin.
Possibly due to its large size, birds don't seem to as interested in this variety as they are in most other cherries, but we still advise you to cover your trees with a net when the fruit are ripening.
