| Description |
Origin: In Summerland, BC, Canada by K.O. Lapins and W. D. Lane, Res. Sta. Agriculture Canada. Lapins and Sunburst were sister seedlings and originated from the cross of Van with Stella in 1965. Both were selected in 1971. Lapins was tested as 2D-28-26 and Sunburst as 2D-28-31, but in 1977 the 2D designation, which indicated orchard location, was changed to 2S when the station map was redrawn. As a result these cultivars may have been tested as 2S-28-26 and 2S-28-31 by some cooperators. Originally trialed as pollinators by commercial orchardist. Introd. in 1983.
Lapins was named to honor Dr. K. O.
Lapins, the cherry breeder at Summerland
from 1957 to 1914. He was the first to incorporate
the self-compatible characteristic
into cultivars, such as Stella (Lapins 1971)
now grown commercially. The cross,
which resulted in both Lapins and Sunburst,
was made by Dr. Lapins and he, together
with H. Schmid, selected Lapins
and Sunburst then propagated them for
further testing at Summerland and by cooperating
scientists, nurserymen and growers.
Outstanding Characteristics: self fertile with a firm rich flavor, resists late frosts, demonstrates abundance of flowering, is an exceptionally heavy producer,
and is resistant to rain-induced splitting.
Similar to Lambert, but larger, firmer, and ripens 2 days later. Similar to Van in color and resembles Stella in shape; mahogany-red. A large dark sweet cherry very similar to Bing, with an exceptional, mouth-watering flavor, now becoming the full orchard replacement tree for Bing commercially. Sometimes sold as “Self-fertile Bing.”
Tree: upright. Flavor/Texture: Mild (17-19% fruit sugar)/Firm. Hardy in Zone 5-6.
