The Amur Cherry grows best in moist well drained soil that is high in organic matter. It is moderately salt and pollution tolerant making it suitable for urban plantings. It has a moderate growth rate and can be grown as either a single or multi-stem tree. Most trees have their lower branches pruned to allow the bark to become more visible. and Orange-bronze flaky bark provides winter colour and exfoliates as the tree ages. Very hardy and a vigorous grower.
