Bob Bors, the lead breeder behind Wowza!, has observed that less productive varieties like this one might be even more winter-hardy. In fact, he’s never seen any winter kill on Wowza!

According to Bors:

“I recall Wowza! had unusually large, red cherries that were 50% longer than wide with small lobes on the bottom. It looked like a miniature Red Delicious apple. I’d never seen any cherry that looked like that.”

Size, Form, and Growth

Wowza! produces cherries that are noticeably larger than other dwarf varieties, and the tree itself stays compact—reaching a mature height of about 7–8 feet. These cherries grow on their own roots (not grafted), which helps with longevity and hardiness.
