Description

Black Cherry (Prunus serotina)

Growing Conditions: Likes sun or semi-shade and is successful in most soil types but does best in well-drained acidic to neutral PH soils.

Ecological Benefits: The Black Cherry’s fragrant flowers provide pollen and nectar for numerous honeybees and native pollinators. White-tailed deer and other wild mammals browse on black cherry without suffering ill side effects suffered by domestic animals.
