Prunus cerasifera 'Spring Glow' is a distinct cultivar of Cherry Plum, celebrated for its stunning, early-spring blossoms. It's a deciduous tree that typically reaches a height of 15-25 feet, suitable for small to medium-sized gardens or landscapes.
The ‘Spring Glow’ showcases vibrant pink blossoms, emerging before the leaves in early spring, creating a striking contrast with the bare branches. The simple, serrated leaves are green, adding a lush appearance in the summer.
This variety produces small, red, and edible fruits, appealing to wildlife, especially birds. While not the first choice for culinary use, these fruits can be used in jellies or jams. The tree is hardy and relatively low-maintenance, tolerating different soil types, including clay, loam, and sandy soils. It prefers well-drained conditions and can adapt to various pH levels.
‘Spring Glow’ is renowned for its drought tolerance and is relatively resistant to pests and diseases, making it a practical choice for gardeners seeking resilient ornamental trees. It is often utilized as a specimen tree due to its ornamental value or planted in rows to create an attractive boundary or screen. The aesthetic appeal and resilient nature of Prunus cerasifera 'Spring Glow' make it a favored selection among many gardening enthusiasts.

About Us
During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
