ABSTRACT:
A new and distinct cultivar of black cherry tree (Prunus serotina Ehrh) which is distinctly characterized by extremely rapid growth rate, strong central stem tendency, excellent straightness, and insect and disease resistance, thereby producing excellent timber qualities, the trait of commercial interest.

This selection has been designated as CH 5 in records maintained by the applicant on the performance of this selection and grafts made from the selection, and will be known hereafter as ‘AFTC-1’.
