Description

Dress up your garden with the pink blooms of Dwarf Flowering Almond 'Sinensis'. This is a multi-stemmed shrub that provides months of foliage and a head-turning display of springtime flowers.

The show starts from early to mid-spring, when clusters of dense, double pink blossom and stretches across the many stems of the shrub. The blooms are soon joined by finely toothed leaves in a glossy green shade, forming an attractive colour contrast against the brighter flowers.

Even when the blossom falls away in summer, the foliage continues to remain strong and coated in colour, all the way through to the frosts of autumn. Hardy and easy to grow, this variety looks delightful either as a showpiece addition to an empty border or a mixed bed.

Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Grow in any moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun.
Care Information
  • When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole.
  • If growing in a pot, ensure that plants are kept regularly watered.

To plant:

  • Dig a hole twice the width of the roots, forking over the bottom to loosen the soil, and add some good quality fertiliser such as Blood Fish & Bone.
  • Aim to plant at the same depth as the soil mark on the supplied plant.
  • Holding the plant upright in position with one hand, slowly backfill the hole with soil, and gently shake the plant, so the soil falls back around the roots.
  • Use your heel to compact the soil around the plant to ensure good contact around the roots.
  • If you're planting into pots, place some old rocks, stones or gravel in the bottom of the pot for drainage and ballast. Use the best compost you can buy.
  • When the soil and air warm up from late March onwards, you should see the plant burst into life.
  • Do not allow plants to dry out in the first four months after planting. Once established for one season, they will become much more tolerant to a lack of water, as the root system develops.
  • There is no real need to prune for the first two years then prune to the shape and size you want. Remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter to control size.
