| This
small tree has really exceptional bark that peels away to
produce new shiny polished mahogany trunk and stems. A real
eye catcher. The canopy is not too thick either making
planting around its base with shade
loving plants more practical than other trees. |
| This
tree is attractive all year round but the bark can really be
appreciated in a dull winter garden. |
Prunus
serrula received an 'RHS Award of Garden Merit' in 2002. |

Tibetan Cherry Tree - Prunus serrula |
| Polished
mahogany coloured bark, which peels away in bands with
age, is an outstanding feature of this small tree. The
brilliance and shine of the bark is attractive
throughout the year, especially during winter. Small,
white flowers are virtually concealed by willow-like
leaves in spring, followed by small cherry-like fruit. |
