Sand Cherry, Flatiron

FLATIRON™ sand cherry is a ground-hugging native shrub reaching about one foot tall and six to eight feet wide. Horticulturist Scott Skogerboe selected it from the wild for its low stature and brilliant red fall color. FLATIRON™ makes a wonderful groundcover. It tolerates inhospitable conditions, including heat and low water.

Its glossy green leaves are topped with white flowers that are of special value to native bees in the spring. During summer, it can happily produce fruit for birds. In the fall, it turns a gorgeous red color.
