Prunus pensylvanica – Pin Cherry – 5-Gallon

A pioneer or colonizing species that often springs up after fire or, more commonly these days, in abandoned fields. The fruits are a favorite of many species of birds – and bird dispersal is how the tree moves around so readily. An outstanding ornamental as well, with metallic coppery red bark marked with distinctive corky orangish bands and bright red-orange-yellow fall foliage.
