Description
- Neat and slender ‘Accolade’ is the perfect flowering cherry tree for a small garden – plant it as a feature tree in a lawn or front garden border
- One of the earliest to bloom in spring, with rich pink buds opening into clusters of fragrant, semi-double pink and white flowers throughout March and April
- Vibrant autumn colour with an eyecatching mix of red and amber tones
- RHS Award of Garden Merit winner for its looks and ease of growing
- Naturally forms an airy canopy which doesn’t cast too much shade – great for underplanting with perennials or bulbs
- In a mild year you might get a few bonus flowers in autumn and winter!
- Looks delicate, is actually hard as nails – this fully cold tolerant tree thrives in all but chalky soils and is rarely bothered by pests or diseases. It will flower best in a sheltered spot with around 6hrs of sunlight daily
- Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
- 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
