Prunus padus 'Watereri'
Prunus Padus Watereri is a cultivated Bird Cherry, with white lightly fragrant flowers in Spring, followed by small black bitter fruits that are attractive to birds. It is a strong-growing rounded shaped tree.
Planting
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Cherries prefer deep, fertile and well-drained soil with pH 6.5-6.7. They dislike shallow, sandy or badly drained soils. Acid cherries tolerate some shade and are suitable as fan-trained trees against north-facing walls or fences, or as open centred bush trees. Best planted in full sunlight.
