  • Compact classic tree shape
  • Ideal for small spaces, growing to 3x3m
  • Clusters of deep pink single flowers
  • Blossoms in March-April

Description

  • A well-shaped, compact flowering cherry with vibrant pink blossom and impressive autumn colour
  • At just under 3 x 3m, this is the ideal flowering tree for a smaller garden
  • Early flowering between March-April with clusters of deep pink, single flowers
  • Red-bronze foliage matures to mid-green before taking on warm red and gold tones in the autumn
  • Attracts pollinators to your garden and provides vital nectar and pollen for early bees
  • RHS Award of Garden Merit winner
  • Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE

In winter, you can store for several weeks if kept in a cool, dark spot. Later in spring, when the temperature rises, you will want to plant within a few days of arrival.
9L poly-pot
This tree is supplied in a 9L Poly-Pot, which is approx D15 x H30cm. Poly-Pots use 70% less plastic than traditional pots and can be recycled. A 9L pot allows ample space for good root development and can support a good size tree.

How To Grow

Good pest and disease resistance

May need protection from caterpillars and leaf-mining moths. Cherry trees are sometimes affected by silver leaf, bacterial canker or blossom wilt - you can prevent these infections by spacing trees apart well and maintaining good airflow through the branches by pruning out any that cross over.

Water in well

Water in thoroughly when planting. For bare root trees, you won't need to water regularly, only in dry spells when needed. You should be able to tell because the leaves will start to wilt and droop. If a container grown tree, it will need more watering until its roots are established. It should be watered every other day or so for the first few months. Then reduce to twice a week until autumn. In the second year it should have an established enough root system to support itself, just water when required as explained above for bare roots. When watering a tree it is important to give a good soaking. It is better to water heavily and less frequently than little and often as this encourages the roots to grow down into the ground.

Full sun

This cherry tree loves full sun exposure or a sheltered location, allowing all the nutrients to create blossom in your garden. Choosing a spot away from strong winds will help all the tree's resources to go towards growing and maintaining the blossom.

Any moist, well-draining soil except chalk

Adapts to clay, loam and sandy soil, but avoid chalk soils.

Feeding not required

This tree gets all the nutrients it needs from the soil. To give it a boost when newly planted, mix in some compost or well rotted manure and use an organic mulch around the tree to help with moisture retention and keep weeds down. ?v=1613300929
