Prunus x ‘SMNPJL’ PP36,755
Choose Easy as Pie® Bush Cherry if you want real edible fruit from a compact shrub. The win is tart cherries without needing a pollinator; the tradeoff is you’ll need a bright, open spot and some harvesting cleanup.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B | It gives spring bloom, clean green foliage, and red fruit, but it is not a big focal-point shrub. |
| Growth Rate | B | Its moderate growth is manageable for home gardens without feeling too slow. |
| Maintenance | B- | It is straightforward to grow, but edible fruit means picking, cleanup, and watching for common cherry issues. |
| Deer Resistance | C | This isn't deer-resistant; deer may browse it, especially tender new growth, so protect it where deer pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | A- | Its compact habit makes it much easier to place than a tree-form cherry. |
| Screening Value | D | It is deciduous and compact, so use it for fruit, not privacy. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for homeowners who actually want to use the fruit, not just look at it. Give it airflow, keep it watered during dry spells, and plan to harvest before birds do.

No, this one is self-fertile, so a second plant is not required.
They are tart, better for baking, preserves, sauces, and cooking than fresh snacking.
Yes, if the container is large, drains well, and is watered consistently.

They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
