Product Description

White blooms in May
Huge crops of fruit in July
Bears fruit at an early age

As handsome and cold hardy as fruiting shrubs come! Hansen's Bush Cherry Tree's branches are covered with pure white, dainty flowers in May and absolutely loaded with purplish-black fruit in July. Its silvery-green leaves turn red in the fall. The bush grows 4-5 ft. tall with a similar spread and bears at an early age. It's able to tolerate a range of conditions. Hansen's Bush Cherry is not able to pollinate other cherry varieties. For best yield, plant two or more Hansen's Bush Cherry Trees. Zones 2-8.
