Yoshino Cherry

An upright tree, with an arching spread, covered in early spring with white flowers lightly blushed with pink; yellow fall color with a hint of bronze; black fruits are bitter but loved by birds; an extraordinary landscape accent

Ornamental Features

Yoshino Cherry features showy clusters of fragrant white flowers with shell pink overtones along the branches in early spring, which emerge from distinctive rose flower buds before the leaves. It has dark green deciduous foliage. The serrated pointy leaves turn an outstanding yellow in the fall. However, the fruit can be messy in the landscape and may require occasional clean-up. The smooth brown bark adds an interesting dimension to the landscape.
