Romeo Cherry vs Purple Leaf Sand CherryPrunus x kerrasis Romeo Prunus x cistena SOLD OUT ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW 
Romeo Cherry is a hardy deciduous hybrid shrub variety of Sour Cherry released in the Romance Series of dwarf sour cherries from the University of Saskatchewan in 2004. It features dark red/black, flavourful fruit most suitable for fresh eating, processing, and juice production. Romeo Cherry is also suitable as an accent or landscape tree.
Purple Leaf Sand Cherry provides bright reddish-purple leaves that turn bronze-green in the fall. In the spring, tiny flowers with a pinkish white hue bloom. The flowers are small, but the impact comes from the shrub blossoming all at once. ROMEO CHERRY QUICK FACTSPURPLE LEAF SAND CHERRY QUICK FACTS
