Prunus avium 'White Gold'

White Gold is an absolutely delicious red-and-yellow, mid-season, self fertile sweet cherry. White Gold is a product of crossing Emperor Francis x Stella from our friends at the NY Experiment Station.

White Gold's good size, great flavor, consistently heavy crops and resistance to cracking and to bacterial canker make the perfect substitute for Rainer cherries in areas where weather conditions are too wet and pollination options are limited. Needs 700 chill hours to reliably bloom and bear fruit.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • Would a mini dwarf do well in a pot? Assuming you up-pot it incrementally as needed?

    Yes that can work well. A half wine barrel is 27 gallons for reference and a great option.

  • What is the White Gold Cherry’s preferred pruning style?

    White Gold can be pruned a number of ways. You should stick with the preffered style for your area. Generally cherries do best with thin crowns that promote a lot of light penetration and air flow.

  • What are the chill hours for this tree?

    800+ chilling hours
