Notes
'Roundel Heart' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Roundel Heart') is a columnar 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. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers from early to late spring. The fruit is grown for fresh eating and ripens in mid season. It is not self-fertile, so plant a second sweet cherry nearby for pollination.
Pairs well with Pale purple coneflower, Blue Muffin arrowwood viburnum, Artist tulip, and Musk mallow.
