Description
Introduced in the early 1900s this unusual cherry won the Award of Garden Merit in 2002.
Sometimes imported as top grafted from the continent. This is a false economy in the long term as the top can outgrow the bottom.
We would advise base grafted trees.
A vigorous rounded medium size tree with a rather spreading crown it has unusual pale yellow flowers tinged with green and occasionally flushed with pink.
They are semi-double and work well with the young bronze foliage.
Its large green leaves produce a great autumn display of red and purple.
Mature height: 3-7m
Mature spread: 4-6m
