Trees for Urban Sites: Wild Cherry (Prunus avium)

Wild Cherries are fast growing short lived ornamental trees with high biodiversity value and all year round interest. They are often planted as small attractive trees for urban settings. Prolific white blossom attracts bees and insects in the spring, and birds and small mammals feed on its bitter fruit in autumn, when its leaves turn orange-red. Wild Cherries were cultivated and eaten as mazzards, principally in the West Country, and are enjoying a renaissance. They prefer relatively sheltered positions and lighter soils.
Wild Cherry, known as Gean in Scotland, sucker freely - in contrast to Bird Cherry - and are often found proliferating at the woodland edge. They are, sadly, particularly vulnerable to Honey Fungus and canker.
Provenance certificates are available on request for the smaller size 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.

The trees are bare root, and are consequently available for delivery from November until March. 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.
