Prunus kiku-shidare-zakura are deciduous ornamental trees with colourful foliage and attractive flower blooms that develop in spring. New foliage appears in a shimmering bronze colour. As the leaves mature, they turn to deep green and hold their colour over the summer season. In autumn, the leaves offer a striking display of fiery orange and bronze, before they fall towards winter. In winter and in regions that get really cold, any snowfall enhances the tree making the branches look stunning, iced in white. The Cheals Weeping Cherry tree offers a wonderful eye-catching display of double petal deep pink flowers in spring, April to May, clustering on the branches. Plant in well-drained, moist soils and position in full sun or partially shaded area. Once planted, monitor the area around for any competing weeds.
