Notes
'Ebony Pearl' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Ebony Pearl') 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. It has a spreading, flat-topped shape and blooms from early to late spring, drawing bees and butterflies. The early fruit is grown for fresh eating. Plant a second cherry nearby, because this tree is not self-fertile.
Pairs well with White fringe tree, Bridal Crown daffodil, and Cat's Pajamas nepeta.
