Chokecherry Seedlings

About the Chokecherry 

This species is expert grown in a greenhouse facility.  

The Chokecherry is a hardy, fast-growing native shrub or small tree valued for its adaptability and usefulness in shelterbelts, naturalized areas, and wildlife plantings. It thrives in a variety of soils and conditions, from open prairie to forest edge, making it a reliable choice for northern climates.

In spring, the Chokecherry bursts into long clusters of fragrant white blossoms that attract bees and pollinators. Through summer, these give way to glossy dark-red to nearly black berries, rich in flavor and ideal for jellies, syrups, and wines. Its foliage remains a deep green until fall, when the leaves turn brilliant shades of red and orange, adding seasonal beauty to the landscape before winter’s rest.
