Notes

'Nabigos' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Nabigos') 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 small spaces, and it blooms in early to late spring for butterflies and bees. The fruit ripens late and is grown for eating fresh. Plant a second cherry nearby, since this one is not self-fertile.

Pairs well with Ice Follies daffodil, Pinky Winky panicle hydrangea, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
