Prunus ‘Snow Goose’

The flowers of this elegant tree are exquisite, and create a wonderful display in mid-spring. Larger than many of the other ornamental cherries, they have soft pure white petals, surrounding a cluster of long tassled stamens. With its slender upright habit this is an ideal choice where space is limited and can be grown in a large pot on the patio. ‘Snow Goose’ would also make a fine specimen for a lawn or spring border where it can be underplanted with bulbs. In autumn, the normally green leaves turn rich autumn shades before they drop.
