Notes
'Turfanda' sweet cherry (Prunus avium 'Turfanda') is a columnar tree for a food garden and a pollinator garden. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun. It is grown for fresh eating. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms from early to late spring. This tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second cherry nearby for pollination.
Pairs well with American linden, Little Hottie panicle hydrangea, Thalia daffodil, and Blush peony.
