Notes

'The Bride' cherry (Prunus 'The Bride') is a tree for borders, containers, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. It grows about 71 to 83 inches tall and wide, so it suits small spaces. It blooms in early to late spring and again in early to late autumn. Bees and birds visit it.

Pairs well with Golden Delicious apple, Pink Lemonade blueberry, and Autumn fern.
