Black Cherry is a fast growing, medium-sized tree reaching up to 50' in height. Growing best in deep, well-drained soils, it has proven to be very hardy in Idaho, withstanding late spring and early fall frosts. This species is moderately drought resistant but may need supplemental water for establishment. Black Cherry is one of our most handsome domestic woods, long sought for its excellent quality and high value. Desirable wood qualities, combined with its hardiness, high wildlife value, and the relative scarcity of this species, make it an ideal tree for planting in plantation and conservation settings.
