Morello Cherry Tree 

Morello Cherry (Prunus Avium Morello) is a large, dark red cherry of excellent cooking  quality. Suitable for those areas of the UK where you could not mistake it for being somewhere in the South of France i.e. not so much sun.

Morello Cherry is not the sort of tree that you could just point in the direction of your garden and it will go and plant itself but it is reasonably trouble free in that you could put it in a less than full sun position and it will be ok. 

If you are looking to lead a complete or partial "Good Life" by cooking or brewing your own then Morello Cherry trees are the perfect UK choice. You will know when the cherries are ripe when they are dark red or when your gardening savvy neighbour is dressed in a black Ninja suit and carrying a blacked out fruit holding device whilst scaling your fence at one hour past bed time 'o' clock to steal them. Leaving them on the tree for longer until they are closer to black makes them a little more palatable if you want to try eating them straight off the tree.
