Notes
'Burlat' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Burlat') is a tree for food gardens and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun. Burlat is grown for fresh eating, and the fruit ripens early. Spring blooms attract butterflies and bees, and you will need a second cherry nearby because this tree is not self-fertile.
Pairs well with Bridal Crown daffodil, Strawberry Sundae panicle hydrangea, and Ernest Markham clematis.
