Plant details
Meet this plant.
A self-fertile sweet cherry that crops heavily on its own — big, firm, mahogany-red fruit with rich, sugary flavor and almost no cracking.
Lapins is a Canadian-bred sweet cherry (a 'Van' & 'Stella' cross developed at Summerland, British Columbia) prized for being one of the few self-fruitful sweet cherries. The cherries are large, heart-shaped, and glossy dark red, with crisp, meaty flesh and a deep, honeyed sweetness that eats beautifully fresh off the branch and holds up well for baking, preserving, and freezing.
Why growers choose the Lapins
- Self-fertile. It sets a full crop without a second cherry tree nearby, making it ideal for smaller yards and first-time fruit growers.
- Large, firm fruit. The cherries are notably big and meaty, with a satisfying snap and rich sugar-forward flavor that rivals the best market cherries.
- Crack resistant. Lapins is well known for resisting the skin-splitting that ruins many sweet cherries after rain near harvest.
- Reliable, heavy bearer. Once established it produces consistently abundant crops, with a long-lived tree that rewards patience.
- Cold-hardy and adaptable. Comfortable in USDA zones 5 through 9, it handles real winters while still ripening sweet, dessert-quality fruit.
At a mature 15-20 ft. tall and 10-15 ft. wide, Lapins makes a handsome shade-and-fruit tree for an in-ground spot in full sun — and because it pollinates itself, a single tree is all you need to enjoy fresh cherries every early summer.

Questions about plant options, delivery, tracking, or an order? Inty is here to help before and after your purchase.
Will my plant look exactly like the photo?
Live plants naturally vary in height, branching, leaf count, color, and shape. Photos show the variety and typical presentation.
Can items arrive separately?
Yes. Plants can have different preparation times and packaging needs, so one order may receive more than one tracking number.
What should I do when it arrives?
Unpack promptly, inspect the plant, water only when needed, and let it acclimate before making major care changes.
