Deciduous hardwood tree of very high wildlife value; fast growing; 50-80ft tall on average, but can grow over 100ft in ideal conditions
Monoecious—both male and female flowers form on the same tree; white flowers bloom in spring & are pollinated by bumblebees, sweat bees, miner bees, various flies, flower beetles, butterflies and moths; foliage becomes a vibrant blend of yellow and red in fall
Its smooth, reddish bark, when crushed, gives off a cherry-like aroma; deer occasionally browse on twigs; bats including the Northern Long-Eared Bat and the Hoary Bat roost in tree cavities
Cherries form in summer and are eaten by large numbers of birds including orioles, bluebirds, blackbirds, veery, mockingbirds, grosbeaks, sparrows and more; mammals which also seek out the fruit include foxes and black bear
Supports over 400 species of butterflies and moths including Coral Hairstreak, Eastern TIger Swallowtail, Spring Azure, Viceroy, Red-Spotted Purple, Ferguson’s Scallop Shell, Cherry Dagger Moth, and many more
