Prunus avium
An outstanding, new, light colored yellow cherry with red blush. Flesh is very firm and finely textured with good quality and flavor. The yellow color outsmarts the birds as they go for the red cherries. Rainier has a distinct flavor superior to most varieties. Bears early, is bud hardy and resistant to cracking. Needs a pollinator, Sam or Stella are good. Space dwarf trees @ 10' circle. Space semi-dwarf trees 15' circle and standard cherry at a 20' circle. Zone 5-7
