Such a pretty blossoming tree, that fills the hedgerows at springtime with a mass of white flowers.
Small reddish cherry fruit is produced in the autumn.

Growing Conditions:
Prefers fertile woodland soils but tolerates clay as well. Shallow rooting.

Value To Wildlife:
Flowers are great for bees and insects and the fruit is an excellent food source for a variety of birds.

Important Note:
This is a deciduous tree and so will shed its leaves in autumn, in order to protect itself from the cold winter weather. Come spring, it’ll burst back into bud and begin to flourish once more.

It is best to plant your trees within a week or two weeks of arrival.
Remember, when your trees arrive we advise to keep them upright, well-watered and away from strong sunlight and high winds.
