Greeting Card - Tasmanian Cherry Orchard

Being an island, Tasmania is known to have a temperate maritime climate, which is a favourable condition for growing cherry trees. Such a climate will mean longer and gentler growing periods; cherry fruit trees grown in such an environment will yield cherries that develop slowly and, consequently, are fuller flavoured as a result. What’s more, Tasmania is internationally recognised for its Area Freedom status for the Fruit Fly, and strict quarantine controls have made the state free from several important diseases and pests (like fire blight).
