Title: 'Stella' Sweet Cherry
Author: F. Kappel
Abstract:
The introduction of 'Stella' in 1968 was
significant, as it was the first self-fertile
sweet cherry cultivar with good fruit quality (6). The fruit were described as black,
large, heart.to oval in shpae with a medium course flesh.
The flavor was rated as
fair to good.
Early descriptions were that
the flesh was moderately firm, however
grower experience since introduction has
suggested that it is too soft for use in
British Columbia because of the requirement for long distance shipping.
