Autumnalis Flowering Cherry Tree: A Year-Round Delight
The Autumnalis Flowering Cherry Tree, a stunning addition to any landscape, offers year-round interest with its beautiful blooms and attractive foliage. This deciduous tree, typically reaching 25 to 35 feet in height and width, boasts a multi-trunked form with slender, upright branches and a rounded canopy. Its adaptability to temperate climates and preference for partial to full sunlight make it a versatile choice for various garden settings.
One of the key features of the Autumnalis Cherry Tree is its double-flowered display. In spring, before the leaves emerge, the tree becomes covered in a profusion of semi-double pink flowers. Remarkably, some flowers may also appear in autumn if the weather remains mild. Following the blooms, 1-4 inch long dark green leaves emerge, eventually accompanied by small, black berries. The leaves provide light shade during the summer months and transform into vibrant yellow and bronze hues in the fall before dropping, offering a captivating autumn display.
