Trees for Wet Ground: Bird Cherry (Prunus padus)

Bird Cherry is a small tree found in the north, with pretty white flowers and bittersweet edible cherries which the birds crop. It's a very hardy tree that helpfully unlike the Wild Cherry enjoys wet sites and does not sucker, so is often found on its own. Orchard ermine moth larvae feed on it and can strip it in the summer.
Cherries are small deciduous trees, with beautiful blossom in the spring and colour in the autumn. Their ornamental, compact form makes the Bird Cherry a useful urban tree. Small mammals and birds eat their bitter fruit. They are, sadly, particularly vulnerable to Honey Fungus and canker.
Provenance certificates are available on request for the smaller size Bird Cherry trees, which are from the Southwest of England.

Please note that standard sizes relate to tree girths in cm. We can supply trees with girths of up to 25cm (i.e. 15 to 20ft tall). As delivery charges for them vary considerably for them please ask for a quote. See our planting and size guide for details and tips on planting.

These trees are all bare root, and are consequently available for delivery from November until March ( please ask if you are interested in pot grown plants). During the lifting season there may be up to two week’s delay between placing the order and dispatching, due to weather conditions or pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence. Orders placed between March and September are confirmed in October ready for dispatch from November.
