Prunus subhirtella ‘Autumnalis’ is a small, deciduous, ornamental cherry tree, with an upright-spreading to rounded habit, and ovate, toothed, green leaves, bronze-tinted when young, orange and yellow in autumn. Masses of lovely, semi-double, pale pink to white flowers, bloom in flushes over an unusually long period of time – from late autumn to early spring. Flowers are followed by pea-sized fruits, without ornamental value, in summer. Prunus subhirtella ‘Autumnalis’ is best grown in fertile, moist, well-drained soil. It prefers full sun and though it tolerates partial shade, best flowers are achieved in full sun. It is more tolerant of summer heat and winter cold than other flowering cherries. Generally, it has good disease resistance. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require much pruning. This winter flowering cherry is perfect as a specimen plant in small cottage, urban, and Japanese-style gardens. Great-looking when planted in groups. Suitable for growing in containers. Tolerant of urban conditions and excellent in streets and parks.

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).
