About this item
- MATURE SIZE & CARE GUIDE: Achieves an average mature height of 25 to 40 feet, thriving in full to part sun exposure and demonstrating drought tolerance for easy care. Ideally suited for USDA Hardiness Zones 10-11, this Jamaican Cherry Tree, Muntingia calabura, is a robust and versatile addition to your garden, requiring minimal maintenance once established.
- SIZE UPON ARRIVAL: Your new Jamaican Cherry Tree starts its journey as a baby plant, standing modestly at 3-8 inches tall, snugly housed in a 3-inch-deep pot. This early stage of its life offers you the unique experience of nurturing it from infancy to its majestic maturity under your attentive and caring green thumb.
- "DROUGHT RESILIENT: Exceptionally drought-tolerant, this tree is an ideal choice for gardeners in dryer climates or those who prefer low-maintenance landscaping. Its resilience ensures that it thrives with minimal water, making it both an eco-friendly and hassle-free addition to any outdoor space.
- SUN LOVING: With a preference for full to part sun, the Yellow Jamaican Cherry Tree flourishes under the warmth of the sun. This sun-loving nature contributes to its vigorous growth and robust health, making it a luminous beacon in any garden.
- ORNAMENTAL AND FRUIT-BEARING: Beyond its simple care and impressive growth, the Muntingia calabura serves dual purposes as both an ornamental tree and a fruit bearer. Its rapid growth and ability to produce sweet, edible cherries make it not only a visual delight but also a source of home-grown treats.
