Tieton™, ripening 6 to 9 days before Bing, is a mildly sweet cherry with a beautiful, glossy mahogany red finish over medium red flesh. The fruit is very large with excellent firmness and a susceptibility to rain cracking similar to Bing. To encourage productivity, Tieton™ should be planted with more than one variety of pollenizer and/or more than 10% pollenizer density. Tieton™ pollenizers include Rainier, Bing, Van, Lapins and Sweetheart™. (U.S. Plant Patent No. 11385)
