Notes

'Solymari Gombolyu' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Solymari Gombolyu') 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. The columnar shape fits small spaces, and the spring flowers attract butterflies and bees. This cherry is grown for fresh eating, but it is not self-fertile, so plant a second cherry nearby for fruit.

Pairs well with Mount Hood daffodil, Scentara Double Blue lilac, and Cytherea peony.
