Description
- With its spreading habit and fabulous semi-double blooms, this Japanese flowering cherry offers real arboreal oomph
- The captivating white flowers appear in abundance in mid-spring, and provide an excellent contrast to the young, bronzish foliage, which turns green with age and then reddish in the autumn
- A tree that makes an excellent focal point for your garden, underplant its wide-spreading canopy with hostas, heucheras and hellebores for maximum impact
- This tree is a bit of a show off; not only does it look incredible but it offers excellent benefits to wildlife and pollinators – jeez, save some talent for the rest of us, why don’t you?!
- ‘Ukon’ has been awarded the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit (AGM) which demonstrates just how well it performs in British gardens
