Description

Bring a flurry of flowering beauty to your garden with this modest weeping cherry. You'll adore the cascade of pure white blossom that awaits!

'Snow Showers' is compact in size regardless of maturity, so is ideal for your pots, restricted spaces, and smaller gardens. It boasts luscious green leaves, delicate white flowers and a great transformation of colour when autumn approaches.

Make a unique visual impact by planting two 'Snow Showers' trees either side of a path, gateway, or door for a stylish and modern look. Weeping branches cascade downwards and are covered in single, pure-white flowers in spring. The lightly scented blooms are particularly popular with the first spring bees, transforming your garden into a hub of buzzing activity.

The ovate and serrated leaves of the plant are green when young, evolving with the seasons to autumnal shades of deep red to orange.

Supplied as a bare root plant, already approximately 90-125cm tall, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Best planted from November choose a sheltered location (to protect the blossom when it emerges in the spring).
Care Information
  • 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 for the first few years will create a more balanced branch framework - prune after flowering and before the new shoot growth appears to create an open goblet shape - removing any twisted, damaged or dead branches.
    • Delivery Information

    Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

    Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

    We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

    Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

    Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

    Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
