Sweetheart cherry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sweetheart cultivar was developed at the Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre in Summerland, British Columbia. The cross was made in 1975 and selected in 1982, and the variety was officially released in 1994.[2] It has since been used as a parent cultivar for several new varieties, including Staccato, Sentennial, and Sovereign.[3] The American Society for Horticultural Science awarded Sweetheart their Outstanding Fruit Cultivar award in 2012.[4][5]
