DESCRIPTION: As best I can determine, these are Prunus Pink Perfecton, Genus Prunus, commonly called the Flowering Cherry 'Pink Perfection'. In early to mid-April the tree covers itself in chubby looking, double, pink blooms. Its double flowers, dark pink in bud, opening slightly paler, are borne in long clusters. This small spreading tree is a vision in pink, producing large clusters of blousy, frilly double flowers in many hues of pink from a pale pink to a deep pinky-purple in April-May. The flowers are complimented by light green and bronze new foliage which in the autumn turn to red and orange. A beautiful, small and elegant tree with slender, spreading branches, pendulous at their tips. | |
