I have a Northstar cherry in Zone 6... but I am not a "Gentleman."

I grow a North Star sour cherry here in Maryland, zone 7, and agree with
everything Pete Tallman says. It's a good choice for a small sour cherry.

that into the sour cherry (plum) bushes. I noticed recent discussion on the
'Joel' bush cherry (plum) inter-specific hybrid - to me, that one has a
worthless fruit, until it is dried; it makes a good partially dried fruit.
