Prunus nipponica 'Ruby' is a beautiful, ornamental, deciduous, cherry tree with ovate, toothed, emerald green leaves, rusty-bronze in spring, attractive golden yellow, fiery orange and red in autumn which are unusual autumn colours for cherry trees. Masses of stunning, single, soft pink flowers bloom in April and May. Attractive to bees and butterflies. Prunus nipponica 'Ruby' can grow in most soil types, except too wet and waterlogged. It prefers moderately fertile, well-drained soils in full sun. Resistant to frost, but needs to be sheltered form harsh winter winds. Late frosts may damage the flower buds. Still, one of the hardiest ornamental cherries available. It can withstand urban pollution. May require some pruning in spring. Japanese Alpine Cherry ‘Ruby’ is a tough and very attractive ornamental cherry, perfect for small cottage, wildlife or urban gardens. Great as a specimen plant, for beds and borders, or wall-side borders. Suitable for growing in containers.
