Wekiva Foliage Cherry Tree Does Not Apply sku-17073700395

Wekiva Foliage offers this Cherry of the Rio Grande tree as a live plant in a 3 gal pot. Listed under Plant Gifts with Red as its color and Does Not Apply as its model, it has glossy evergreen leaves, fragrant white spring flowers and edible fruit that ripens from green to red or purple.

Grow it in full sun to partial shade; at least six hours of direct sun supports flowering and fruiting, while partial shade can reduce fruiting. Water deeply during the growing season, allowing the top inch of soil to dry between waterings; water more often in hot or dry conditions without leaving the soil waterlogged.

It prefers well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil and grows best in USDA Zones 9 to 11. Established trees tolerate mild frost, but young trees need protection below 30F. A container plant can be brought indoors for winter. SKU sku-17073700395; UPC 790313261457.
