Pomological properties of twelve sweet cherry cultivars of different maturing time were studied at the Experimental Station Radmilovac of the Faculty of Agriculture in Belgrade (Serbia), during the five-year period (2005-2009). The aim of this study was choosing of the best cultivars for commercial production. The average harvest time was from May 12 to June 18. High productivity was obtained in cultivars Van, Early Van Compact, Lapins, Stella, Bing and Drogan's Yellow, while low productivity was obtained in Merchant, Summit, and Burlat. The largest fruit had cultivar Vega (9.2 g), and the smallest one Primavera (4.0 g). Soluble solids content ranged from 12.7% (Primavera) to 18.2% (Drogan's Yellow) and it was correlated with the time of maturation. The highest organoleptic scores for fruit quality got cultivars Bing and Summit. Among early season cultivars the best results showed Burlat and Souvenir des Charmes (Bigarreau Moro), among mid season cultivars Van, Summit and Vega, and among late season cultivars Bing and Lapins.
