Schubert Chokecherry
$525.00
Prunus virginiana 'Schubert'
Appearance: Popular for its shapely, oval form and rich, ornamental colour, Schubert Chockecherry is an excellent accent tree for smaller landscapes. Showy chains of fragrant, white flowers bloom in spring. Leaves are pointy and oval, emerging green before turning a deep, wine-red hue that is retained through the season. Small, ornamental fruit persists on branches through winter, attracting birds to the garden.
Care and Maintenance: A hardy self-pollinator native to North America, Schubert Chokecherry requires regular maintenance and upkeep due to its suckering habit. Any additional pruning should be done in late winter, once the risk of extreme cold has passed. Adaptable to a variety of soil types/pH, this tree performs best in average to moist conditions, but will struggle to survive in standing water. Highly tolerant of urban pollution.
Mature Height: 25' Mature Spread: 13'
Growth Rate: Moderate
Hardiness Zone: 2
Sunlight: Full sun
