About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
The Ungarische Traubige is an old sour cherry from the Carpathian region that carries its fruit in dense clusters like grapes, hence the name. It is milder than the dark morellos and reliably self fertile. A lovely cultivar if you want a sour cherry that can also be enjoyed fresh from the tree.
Dark red, medium sized fruits with a pleasantly mild acidity and full aroma. Picked ripe it is a real snacking cherry, but it also cuts a fine figure preserved in jars and as juice.
