Flowering Cherry Trees Kwanzan

Kwanzan Cherry - Height: 25-30 ft, Width: 15-20 ft. Interest: Showy double-pink spring blooms. ‘Kwanzan’ Cherry is a striking ornamental tree with bright, double-pink flowers in spring that create a dramatic display. Its vase-shaped growth and smooth bark add structure and elegance to landscapes. Plant in full sun with well-draining soil. Water regularly during the first year. Minimal pruning is needed to remove dead or crossing branches.

Maintenance Tip:
Prune lightly after flowering to shape the tree and remove dead or damaged branches. Avoid heavy pruning, as this can reduce next season’s blooms. Water during dry periods, especially when young, and apply fertilizer in early spring. Monitor for pests and fungal issues, particularly in humid conditions.
