Product Description
Also known as the Fuji Cherry, this gorgeous, compact tree will burst into flower before the leaves appear in late winter to early spring each year.
They start as red buds which appear to almost dance around the branches, but then open to reveal beautiful pale-pink flowers, each with a red centre. Perfect for small garden or growing in a pot on your patio, Kojo-No-Mai even provides autumn interest when its green leaves turn from green to bright reddish / orange before falling. The statuesque form of the tree is also a joy to observe on frosty mornings when a haw-frost shows it off to its very best.
Kojo-No-Mai is fully winter hardy whatever the weather and grows to just 3ft after 10 years if left un-pruned but will be happy to receive a regular trim during early summer after flowering has finished.
Supplied as an established tree in a 5L pot, ready to pot on or plant out.
NB deciduous so o leaves in winter.

Care Guide
- Dig a square hole as deep as the roots and approximately 1.5x as wide.
- Add Mycorrhizal fungi to the planting hole to help the plant establish quicker.
- Spread the roots gently and place into the planting hole.
- Mix well rotted compost or manure with the soil taken from the hole and then use to backfill around the tree.
Keep well-watered until established. - Keep the area free of competing weeds and protect the tree with a rabbit guard if necessary to protect your young cherry tree.
- Pruning your tree is not usually necessary unless you need to remove damaged or broken branches.
