Prunus Sargentii - Pink Flowering cherry 45 litre Pot (10-12cm)

Prunus sargentii produces a mass of large, pretty pink flowers in spring which are complimented by lovely reddish-bronze new foliage that turns a glossy green before bursting into vibrant shades of yellows, reds, oranges and maroons in early autumn.

Good for year round interest, the dark brown bark of 'Rancho' takes on a glossy red hue. Also called Upright Sargent’s Cherry, a height and spread of 6 x 4 metres in 20 years can be expected. This pollution tolerant Flowering Cherry tree will grow well in most soils apart from very wet or shallow, chalky conditions.
