Description
Prunus subhirtella ‘Autumnalis Rosea’ or winter flowering cherry is a small deciduous tree which blooms from November through to March.
The flowers are semi-double and fairly small, producing a subtle fluttering of pink in winter months. The foliage turns from a deep green to orange-yellow in autumn. This pretty little tree remains small at maturity and forms a smart, rounded crown.
Like all cherry trees, it prefers a well-drained soil, avoiding heavy clay and water logged soils.
Prunus subhirtella ‘Autumnalis Rosea’ is a great selection of species to add some colour during the winter months.
Mature height: 3-7m
