Description
This Flowering Cherry is rather like a purple-leaved equivalent of the well known Prunus Kanzan.
It gives wonderful contrast to a garden with its spectacular foliage and flower display.
Historically Prunus cerasifera Nigra is thought of as the choice for purple leaf interest but this clone provides real competition.
A small tree with ascending branches it forms an oval to rounded crown at maturity.
Its double shell pink flowers are set against beautiful wine-red foliage to create an eye-catching effect.
Lovely in parks and gardens but like most cherries it prefers a free draining soil.
We stock these as both single or multi-stemmed.
Mature height: 3-7m
Maximum spread: 3-5m
