Prunus serotina Ehrh. is cited by a University of Minnesota source as a Prunus species that escaped cultivation and became invasive in parts of Europe. It was originally introduced for erosion control, then spread into agricultural land and fragments of woody habitat [S1].
The same source uses P. serotina as a cautionary example for Prunus introductions. It recommends considering invasive potential before propagating or releasing cultivars, because selected traits such as stress tolerance, disease resistance, growth rate, and fertility may increase invasion risk [S1].
A page-neighbor note associates about 44% mature-seed germination with notable invasive potential, but the packet does not provide cultivar traits, fruit description, parentage, or hardiness for this entry [S1].
