Kwanzan Ornamental Flowering Cherry Tree

Kwanzan Ornamental Flowering Cherry Tree

Prunus serrulata 'Kwanzan'

The Kwanzan is easily one of the most dazzling and showiest of all cherry trees. Positively stunning in the spring, the blooms are a clear pink, double flower. Huge clusters of carnation-like blossoms will be the envy of the neighborhood for weeks. While it’s still in bloom your Kwanzan will start to grow young bronze leaves. As summer progresses the leaves will settle into a glossy light green with a slight red tinge making it a wonderful shade tree as well. In the fall your Kwanzan will again become the center of attention when its foliage transforms from a cool light green to a brilliant golden-orange. With twice as many blooms as other cherry trees it is the perfect choice as a dramatic focal point. Planted around a deck or patio the Kwanzan Cherry Tree will create an enchanting outdoor living space.
