Was wondering if you could identify this tree for me. it has berries that turn from red to dark purple almost black. I am located in maryland. also in spring this tree has smalls flowers
Answer
Dear Panic.exe, your plant is Prunus serotina (black cherry). If you examine the leaves closely, you will note they have (on the underside of the leaf blade) white to rusty colored hairs along the midrib (you may need magnification to see it). Best wishes.
