How to choose Flowering cherry trees

We have one of the widest selections of flowering cherry trees available in the UK.

The flowering cherries offer perhaps the most beautiful and attractive blossom of all tree species. They are usually cold-hardy and disease-resistant, and have some tolerance of poor soils including clay or chalk soils.

There is a considerable choice of size and form, from small compact trees which will suit the smaller garden, to weeping forms, columnar (fastigiate) forms, and large vigorous trees suitable for open spaces. However all flowering cherries are best when planted in a sheltered situation, so that the blossom will be as long-lasting as possible.

The flowering cherry season usually lasts from late March to early May - about 6 weeks - although some varieties flower even earlier. The RHS classifies flowering cherries as early season (late March to early April), mid-season (mid-April to late April), or late-season (late April and into early May). Individual varieties are typically in flower for about 2 weeks.

If planting a weeping variety it is generally best to tie the leader to a tall bamboo cane for the first few years. In the case of 2-year pot-grown examples you can cut back the tip by 3-5cm after planting, this will encourage more shoots to develop.

For more advice see our article on how to choose a cherry blossom tree.
