Prunus Virginiana, Canadian Red Select, Chokecherry (Multi Stem 5-6' Size) (Bare root)
The Canadian Red Select Chokecherry in multi-stem form is a small, deciduous tree or large shrub known for its clustered white spring flowers and bright red to purple berries. The tree produces abundant, fragrant flowers in late spring, which are followed by dark red to black berries that attract birds and wildlife. The glossy green foliage turns a brilliant yellow in the fall, offering seasonal color. With its multi-stemmed growth habit, this variety has a bushier appearance compared to the single-trunk tree form, making it an excellent choice for hedges, screens, or as a specimen plant in landscapes. It is also valued for its disease resistance and cold hardiness.
Mature Height:
Typically reaches a mature height of 8-12 feet.
Spacing:
Spacing of 6-8 feet between plants is recommended for multi-stem planting to allow for natural spreading and growth.
Interesting Information:
Canadian Red Select is an improved cultivar of chokecherry, known for its resistance to common diseases, including Black Knot and Cytospora Canker.
The red to purple berries produced by the tree are tart and not commonly eaten fresh but can be used for making jellies, sauces, and wines.
The multi-stem form offers a more compact and bushy appearance, making it perfect for smaller gardens or as a privacy hedge.
It is cold-hardy and drought-tolerant once established, thriving in a variety of soil types, including clay and sandy soils.
The showy flowers and bright berries make it an excellent choice for attracting wildlife, particularly birds.
Grow Zone:
Zones 2-7, making it ideal for cold climates and adaptable to a wide range of conditions.
