Chokecherry refers to the fruit and the tree Prunus Virginiana, which grows in abundance in North America. These tiny cherries, generally about .4 inches (1 cm) in diameter when fully grown are relatives to the black cherry. Unlike their edible relatives, chokecherries are generally not edible, at least for humans.
The chokecherry tree is a wild host for a stone fruit disease known as the X-disease. Infected trees reveal slow growth in the spring and six to eight weeks later, the berries become a bright orange or red and diseased leaves fall off.
