Sweet cherry pollination for Early Burlat and Moreau

Abstract

Two promising, early maturing cherry varieties, Early Burlat and Moreau, were recently introduced in California. Adequate pollination data for these varieties were not available at the time of introduction, so a study was conducted to develop this information. Early Burlat was found to be successfully pollinated by a number of commercially grown varieties. However, no satisfactory pollenizer for Moreau has been found.
