Capulín Cherry Tree (Prunus salicifolia)
Bring a touch of early spring magic to your garden with the Capulín Cherry—a striking, fast-growing tree known for its cascading branches and beautiful white blossoms. Native to Central and South America, this tree is both ornamental and fruitful, making it a fantastic addition to larger landscapes.
In early spring, its graceful, slender shoots burst into masses of delicate white flowers, each accented with a tuft of golden stamens. As the season progresses, the fruit emerges—starting out yellow, then ripening into deep red or almost black. The cherries themselves are small, soft, and juicy, with a unique tropical sweetness.
