Product Name: Duanbing Cherry (Short-Petiole Cherry)

Description:
Duanbing Cherry is a premium Chinese cherry (Cerasus pseudocerasus) variety from Zhuji, Zhejiang. Developed from local wild cherry seedlings through 20 years of careful selection, this variety was officially recognized in 2006 and awarded National Agricultural Product Geographical Indication status in 2017 .

Named for Its Distinctive Stem:

This variety is named for its short, thick, and straight stem (short, thick, and upright fruit stalk) – typically 1.5–2 cm long. This unique characteristic not only gives the fruit its name but also makes it easier to package and more durable during harvest and transport .

Appearance:
The fruit is flat-round with a light golden-yellow base color, turning completely bright red when fully ripe. The thin, glossy skin gives it a fresh, marketable look. The flesh is yellow-white, tender, soft, and juicy .

Flavor:
Deliciously balanced with a sweet-tart flavor and a subtle aroma. Soluble solids content reaches 10.5%–15.6%, with an edible rate of 89% .

Size:
Average fruit weight is 2.8g, with large fruit reaching up to 4g – considered a large-fruited variety among Chinese cherries .

Growing Advantages:
Self-fruitful – no pollinizer required. Early bearing and high yielding, with individual tree yields of 50–100kg . Ripens from late April to early May – one of the earliest fruits of spring, capturing premium early-season demand .

Harvest Season:
Late April to early May – a spring treasure that marks the beginning of the fruit season
