Bing cherries are used almost exclusively for fresh market. Bings are large, dark and firm cherries that ship well, but will crack open if exposed to rain near harvest. [1] A dry-summer climate is required for the harvest of the Bing cherry, making them especially well adapted to the climates of the Pacific Northwest and California.
The multitude of questions are really linked or are supposed to fall under one big inquiry - the parthenocarpy of cherry trees. Sneazy 01:41, 28 July 2013 (UTC) No, Parthenocarpy is something entirely different. What you seem to be asking about is Self-pollination. Cherries are self-pollinating, so you can grow a single tree and get fruit.
Sweetheart is a self-fertile cultivar which can be used as a "universal pollinator" for other cherry varieties with similar bloom time. [6] The flowers bloom about 2-3 days before Bing. [1] It is a very heavy producer, with overcropping being a potential issue. [7] The tree is highly susceptible to powdery mildew. [8]
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Whisk in the melted butter, eggs, egg yolks, cream, yogurt, lemon zest, seeds scraped from the piece of vanilla bean, and 1/4 cup of the chopped hazelnuts.

Trees that are cross-pollinated or pollinated via an insect pollinator produce more fruit than trees with flowers that just self-pollinate. [1] In fruit trees, bees are an essential part of the pollination process for the formation of fruit. [2] Pollination of fruit trees around the world has been highly studied for hundreds of years. [1] Much ...
About 10–15% of flowering plants are predominantly self-fertilizing. [9] Self-pollination is an example of autogamy that occurs in flowering plants. Self-pollination occurs when the sperm in the pollen from the stamen of a plant goes to the carpels of that same plant and fertilizes the egg cell present. Self-pollination can either be done ...
The Van cherry tree is hardy, vigorous, and a heavy bearer, [5] but overloading can cause it to produce small fruit. [6] Like most cherry varieties, Van is self-incompatible; it can be pollinated by many other cherry varieties, including Bing, Montmorency, and Stella, among others. [7] Van blooms about 3 days before Bing. [2]
