Caring For Sand Cherry Bushes

These small flowering deciduous fruiting shrubs are highly adaptable to various soil types and climates. Cold-hardy, you'll get the best show of blooms and fruit set in full sun. Typically xeric and hardy plants, Sand Cherry thrive in some tough conditions in nature, but these native and hybrid plants also do well in average garden conditions!

Sand Cherries thrive in harsher conditions due to their deep root system, enabling established plants to survive drought. Like most plants, these hardy natives need well-drained soil and average fertility. Provide a layer of mulch to help insulate the roots and support their moisture needs.

These plants bloom in the spring so to get maximum bloom displays, prune right after they have finished blooming. You can also renewal prune every 3-5 years to keep the branching vigorous and remove older branches that are less productive.

Sweet Little Sand Cherry Shrubs

The Prunus family has over 400 species growing in just the Northern hemisphere and includes Almonds, Nectarines, Peaches, Apricots, Cherry, and Plum trees! Grown not just for their beauty but for the gorgeous flowers and tasty fruit they produce.

Sand Cherries are grown more for their ornamental qualities and not for the fruit but they are still fantastic additions to your edible landscaping orchards and supporting native ecosystems.
