Prunus ‘Accolade’ Tree (Cherry Blossom) (12-Litre Pot)

The Prunus ‘Accolade’, Cherry Blossom Tree, is a wonderful choice as the central feature of a magnificent garden display. With its early flowering pendulous blooms and slender silhouette, this elegant ornamental tree is a wonderful addition to a range of outdoor spaces.

From early spring, beautiful fragrant semi-double flowers form in clusters to cover the branches of the tree in vibrant pink hues. As the flowers fade, the mid-green ovate shaped leaves gradually transform into autumnal shades of burnt orange.

A great choice for smaller spaces, it adds impact without taking over. In addition to this, because of its airy growth and sparse canopy, it works well with a range of underplanting.

In addition to looking beautiful, this tree is fully hardy and is a reliable performer in the garden. It has received the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit in recognition of its consistent and healthy growth.

To get the most from this Cherry Blossom tree, plant it in a bright and sunny position in your garden, in moist well-drained soil.
