Red Canada Chokecherry Tree, Ball and Burlap

The Canada Red Chokecherry (Prunus virginiana ‘Canada Red’) is a unique and distinguished, small deciduous tree to add to a landscape. It brings interest and color throughout the growing season. It is one of the first trees to leaf out in the spring, providing an early source of food for pollinators. It makes a wonderful lawn tree, providing dappled shade and enough light to come through for turf to survive.
The Canada Red Chokecherry grows in an oval shape with an upright and spreading growth habit and good branch structure. It grows to a height of 25 feet tall and 20 feet wide.
The leaves emerge bright green with a tinge of bronze in the spring, maturing to a deep, rich, maroon color in the summer. The transition from green to purple leaves is a sight to behold when half the tree is still green and half is purple!
