Summary[edit]

Description Prunus virginiana var. demissa—Western chokecherry. The flowers are pretty, insects love the nectar, Indians used the wood for bows, the fruit is tasty, especially when mixed with sugar. With all that going for chokecherries, you know people would find reasons to dislike the tree. Orchard owners hate it because it hosts tent caterpillars and ranchers hate it because deadfall leaves develop a cyanide poison as they wilt, endangering horses, sheep, and cattle. The beetle has been tentively identified by BugGuide.net as Diabrotica undecimpunctata tenella—western cucumber beetle. Photographed at Regional Parks Botanic Garden located in Tilden Regional Park near Berkeley, CA.
