PRUNUS AWANUI UPRIGHT FLOWERING CHERRY in New Zealand

PRUNUS AWANUI - UPRIGHT FLOWERING CHERRY

A medium sized flowering tree with a broad crown that spreads as the tree matures, outstretched branching, a straight trunk and green serrated leaves in the summer months. An amazing show of shell pink flowers in the spring adds colour to the garden just before summer. The tall upright form is useful as a border between properties. It is hardy to most growing conditions.
