→ The Cherry tree was Tree of the Year 2010!

The “Bialbero di Casorzo” is a wonderful example of harmonious coexistence, because both trees thrive. This rare couple has similar requirements and needs and settled peacefully on a small piece of ground. Both trees belong to the botanical order of the rose family and are native throughout the northern hemisphere of our planet. They prefere warm and sheltered sites and deep, nutrient-limestone soils. The cherry is the more adaptable part, because she is widely cultivated in the northern areas of Scandinavia and heights up to 1800 meters. The Mulberry is one of the oldest cultivated plants and is mentioned in many traditions. This tree-couple is a true symbol of fertility…

prunus avium botanicalThe healing powers of mulberry help with mucosal inflammation, digestive disorders, iron deficiency and “inspire body and spirit.” The cherry is animating and stimulating, anti-inflammatory, diuretic and acid secretory, strengthens the heart and blood circulation, promotes appetite and digestion and tightens sagging skin on again.
