Prunus ‘Nigra’ Upright Purple Flowering Plum

Prunus nigra fastigiata

Upright Flowering Plums are great, tall and narrow growing ornamental, purple leaf plum trees. Resembling the shape of a narrow ornamental pear, they have the added bonus of interesting purple foliage as well as a beautiful Spring flower display.

Upright Flowering Plums can be planted as a screen or to frame pathways and driveways. They are hardy once established, and will grow up to 5 meters tall, with a spread of roughly 2 meters. Little pruning required.
