A graceful ornamental flowering cherry tree, Prunus sargentii makes a showy addition to any landscape. The fruit of this cultivar is inedible to humans. Sargent cherry has good resistance to most pests that typically afflict Prunus.
Origin Japan: introduced to the U.S. in the early 1900s, and named after the first director of the Arnold Arboretum in Cambridge, Massachusets.
