In this video, I'll be talking about our native black cherry tree aka Prunus serotina. It's a keystone species in a genus that is second only to our native oaks! It hosts hundreds of moths and butterflies. As you'll see in the video, the blooms on this tree are also wonderful for pollinators. Small butterflies and bees are attracted to the white blooms. I am also growing mine for shade, and it's already providing a small amount of shade on the West side of my garden. I've planted some lovely native woodland plants underneath it.
