Mary Liss Pincherry is smothered in stunning clusters of fragrant white flowers hanging below the branches in mid spring before the leaves. The fruits are showy cherry red drupes carried in abundance in mid summer. It has forest green deciduous foliage. The pointy leaves turn an outstanding orange in the fall. The smooth antique red bark adds an interesting dimension to the landscape.
