Variety description

10 August 2026

The name Speckkirsche was historically used in German-language literature as a collective designation for a number of sweet cherry varieties. The identity of this name is considered uncertain, as various varieties could have been grouped under it, for example, Münsterkirsche or Grosse Prinzessin.

In old descriptions, this name was associated with the Bigarreau type, the fruits of which are distinguished by firm, "fatty" or "cartilaginous" flesh, unlike soft heart-shaped cherries. In 19th-century publications, it was indicated that such plants ripened late, predominantly at the end of July.
