Boughen's Golden Chokecherry typically grows into a shrub form with yellow fruit and beautiful green foliage. This type of chokecherry is particularly sweet because it is non-astringent, meaning that it does not produce tannins. Tannins are what create the puckering, or sour taste when eating something unripe. WESTERN SAND CHERRY QUICK FACTSBOUGHENS GOLDEN CHOKECHERRY QUICK FACTS
