Mini-Standard Japanese Blossom Cherry Prunus Kojo-No-Mai

Also known as the 'Fuji Cherry', this gorgeous, compact tree will burst into flower before the leaves appear in late winter/early spring each and every 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.

Now available in eye-catching 'standard' form, this beautiful spring wonder has been skilfully crafted into a lollipop shape with a tall, clear stem and ball of foliage and flower at the top. This is a really unique and exciting way to bring colour and life into your garden. Perfect for growing in pots and containers on the patio, because of its standard form it will remain compact and can therefore be grown in even the smallest of spaces, such as terraces and balconies.

'Kojo-No-Mai' is fully winter hardy whatever the weather and with just a little prune to the desired shape, it's a great choice for a spot of 'easy gardening'!

Top Tips

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.
