ALL PLANTS ARE 3” POT SIZE TISSUE CULTURED and will be approximately 3” to 6” tall. These are from DNA Gardens in Alberta Canada, which is the only source for CVI Cherries for Import to the USA. DNA has an exclusive agreement with the University of Saskatchewan. Because the cost of larger size plants was $20 without shipping, royalties etc. we decided on the smaller size to bring in.
