Notes

'Hollander' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Hollander') 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. Grow it for fresh eating, with fruit ripening in mid season. It is not self-fertile, so plant a second sweet cherry nearby for pollination. Butterflies and bees visit the spring blooms.

Pairs well with Mount Hood daffodil, Pinky Winky panicle hydrangea, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
