Compass Cherry Plum Tree (Prunus 'Compass') is a small dark-red plum/cherry hybrid with loads of flavor and ornamental beauty! From springs clouds of fragrant white blossoms to the dark fruit dangling from the rounded canopy, these are unique fruit trees for some of the coldest growing zones!

Mid-sized trees at maturity, they readily tuck into smaller lots and yards, even for containers and planters when pruned smaller yet! The lush foliage is lovely all growing season and cloaks itself in reds and yellows for the autumn!

Compass Cherry Plum Tree fruit has yellowish-red flesh, is very sweet and very tart! Later blooming, northern gardeners won’t need to worry about a late frost killing off their blooms before they’ve been pollinated by the bees. If the fruit is too tart for you, your local wildlife and songbirds will gladly help themselves to the bounty!

Compass Cherry Plums are great for tart snacking, baked goods and preserves! They’re also fantastic for wildlife and sharing! The spring blossoms attract and support many pollinators, while these are picturesque little trees for ornamental edible landscaping in your front or back yard!
