Prunus 'Pink Perfection' - flowering cherry
The name of this flowering cherry says it all: Pink Perfection. It belongs to our most popular cherries. In mid-spring relatively small buds appear and it takes them up to 2 weeks to open up so the stunning display can begin. 2-3 cm wide, double flowers hang in clusters of 3-5 make the tree crown look like one huge candy floss. They are light pink inside and bright pink towards the edges, looking like shiny neon. The crown is moderate to slow growing, spreading. Owing to a large number of flowers we recommend applying a slow-release fertilizer in the spring.
Sunny location is best, it needs moist, well-drained soil, preferably slightly acidic.
