Wild Cherry is a deciduous tree known scientifically as Prunus serotina. It typically grows in North America and can reach heights of 50 to 80 feet. The tree produces small, white flowers in spring, which later develop into dark red or black cherries. These fruits are often enjoyed by birds and other wildlife. The wood of the Wild Cherry tree is highly valued for its rich color and fine grain, making it popular in furniture and cabinetry. Additionally, the bark and leaves contain compounds that have been used in traditional medicine, although caution is advised due to potential toxicity.
