Meteor is Classified as an amarelle type cherry (red skin and yellow flesh), Meteor is renown for its baking properties and is ideal for making pies, tarts, cobblers and other pastries. Fruit is typically ready in late June/early July. Best suited for fresh eating and cooking – particularly well-suited for pie making. Self-fertile.

Meteor is still considered experimental in zone 3. We recommend planting in a sheltered location (minimal wind exposure) and ideally in a location with significant snowfall. Not recommended for novice orchardists.
