Weeping Higan Japanese Cherry Tree - 5 Seeds

Features

• Bonzai also. Prunus subhirtella pendula, the Weeping Higan Cherry grows 20 to 30 feet tall and spreads 15 to 25 feet in a graceful weeping habit.
• It is native of Japan. This Prunus should make nice bonsai. There is nothing quite like the Weeping Higan Cherry in full bloom in the Spring. The light pink, almost white, one-inch-diameter flowers cover the branches before the leaves emerge, giving the appearance that fresh snow has fallen on the tree.
• This spreading deciduous tree is one of the hardiest, most heat and cold tolerant of the flowering Cherries. The tree grows in almost any soil and transplants easily when young. Prunus subhirtella pendula prefers moist, well-drained soils of average fertility, but is adaptable to poor soils, compacted soils and dry soils. It has a fairly rapid growth rate and prefers an open, sunny location sheltered from wind.
• The leaves are alternate, simple with serrate margins, oblong to ovate and less than 2 inches. Leaves stay glossy green throughout the Summer. The Fall color is a mixture of green and yellow. It is a specimen tree with single trunk. This deciduous tree has branches that are strongly weeping in form. The bronzy-brown bark is smooth and attractive. Hardiness zones 5-8, (-26C/-15F, -10C/15F) in Winter.
• Marde Ross & Company has been a Licensed California Nursery since 1985.
