Gardeners Dream

Making your garden pretty is easy when you choose the lovely Prunus 'Accolade'. It offers a charming display of semi-double, rose-pink flowers that cluster on the branches in mid-spring, sure to make you smile. The flowers fade to light pink as summer approaches. It also has a very attractive smooth red-brown bark, which is marked with horizontal raised pores. The foliage is a fresh green in spring turning to a darker summer green and then to yellow-orange in autumn. Your Flowering Cherry Tree will grow to a tall, graceful shape reaching heights of 5m and spreads of 4m in a 20 year period. It thrives in fertile, moist well-drained soil and prefers full sun. This plant can tolerate most soils, making it a good choice if you are in a difficult area or a coastal region. This is a hybrid cherry tree that combines the early flowering properties of Prunus subhirtella with the bright pink blossom and stunning autumn colour of the Prunus sargentii. Offering a tree as a gift makes a wonderful and thoughtful gesture and a friend will be delighted to receive a Flowering Cherry Tree on a special occasion.
