Description

Prunus cerasifera elvins

Tis called a plum! But a fruiting plum it is not! The Elvins Flowering Plum is a perfect little round deciduous tree with stunning autumn colours, come spring time pops of blossom unfurl into white flowers which magically change colour to coral pink. What a journey! The best option for a smaller garden as this tree may be little but mighty in personality. Loves full sun and moist well draining soil. Grows approximately H: 3 Meters W: 3 Meters 8"/20cm pot size.

Cercis canadensis 'Flame'

The 'Flame' Redbud is a small feature tree, that unlike other Redbuds, produces vibrant red new growth and double-petal rose-pink flowers. It is a gorgeous deciduous tree that loves both full sunlight and partial shade. This tree is butterfly and bee attracting and is late flowering compared to other varieties, but well worth the wait! See our Cercis Factsheet here for more about the different Cercis varieties!
