This beautiful Cherry Plum (Prunus cerasifera) was in full bloom on April 9. One of the earliest-flowering trees in the Ozarks, it also bears an edible fruit that depending on species may be sour or sweet with good flavor and also makes good jams. Many cultivars of Cherry Plum are available, and those with reddish foliage are the most popular. The plant may be grown as a shrub or tree.
