Notes
'Isabella' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Isabella') 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. Its columnar shape suits smaller spaces. It is grown for eating fresh, with fruit ripening in mid season. Spring flowers open from early to late spring and bring in bees and butterflies.
Pairs well with Red elderberry, Thalia daffodil, American Gold Rush black-eyed Susan, and Strawberry Sundae panicle hydrangea.
