Black Cherry (Prunus serotina) is a fast-establishing North American native tree prized for its edible summer fruit, spring flower clusters, and long-term shade value. This deciduous tree develops glossy green foliage, fragrant white blossoms in spring, and small dark cherries that ripen for culinary use and wildlife forage. It adapts to a wide range of soils and grows well in full sun to partial shade, making it suitable for home landscapes, naturalized plantings, and backyard orchards. As a mature tree, black cherry forms a tall, upright canopy that provides cooling shade and habitat value. The fruit has a traditional tart-sweet flavor used in jams, jellies, syrups, and wine, while the tree itself offers seasonal interest from flowers to fall color. Plant seedlings with adequate spacing to allow natural growth and long-term structure. This listing ships as a live young plant ready for outdoor planting (cannot ship to California).
