A deciduous spreading tree grown mainly for its semi-double blush pink flowers which appear in early to mid spring, before the oval taper pointed dark green leaves followed by yellow autumn colour. They will blossom in mild winters giving much pleasure through the dark months. Cherries are fully hardy and need full sunshine and will grow in all but waterlogged soil.
A low maintenance tree, cherries need very little pruning, mainly to cut out any diseased or dead wood. Prune in mid-summer if silver leaf is a problem. They do like a good weed, mulch and compost in spring. A small tree and suitable for all but very small gardens. Bees benefit from the flowers.
Special features: Fairly shallow rooted tree. Dislikes waterlogged or too dry soil.
The Cherry has long been used as a Good Luck Gift. A feminine tree, its Planet is Venus and its Power is Love.
The tree is watered before carefully packed by one of our experienced staff on site. It comes in a cardboard box lined with straw. (We try to use as much recycling material as possible) The box is addressed to the customer or a specified name and address and sent out overnight delivery to arrive on requested dates.
Please note the size of the tree that you are ordering, as our trees are provided for our clients to plant themselves, which may appear at a small size rather than the fully grown tree as shown in the photos. To find out more information, please visit our Delivery & Returns page.
