In autumn, the shiny green hedge leaves turn a beautiful orange, pink or red before falling. The pure white flowers are produced in early spring at the same time as the new leaves. Wild cherry bark is smooth purplishbrown with prominent horizontal greybrown lenticels on young trees, becoming thick dark blackishbrown and fissured on old trees. It can grow in any normal fertile soil, although it prefers none acid rich soils and likes the sun.
