Prunus serotina, also known as Black Cherry, is a 25-80ft (less commonly 100ft) tall native fruit tree that has dark, glossy leaves and bunches of white flowers in the spring. These flowers turn into dark, red fruits that shift to black from August to October. The fruit is edible, though more bitter than other cherry varieties, and is commonly used for syrups, jellies, and wines.
