Prunus serr. Kanzan Full Standard 20 Litre 10/12cm Girth

Prunus serrulata ‘Kanzan’ (Japanese Flowering Cherry)

Spectacular, showy, and much loved, Prunus serrulata ‘Kanzan’ is one of the finest flowering cherries, famed for its dramatic spring display. In April–May, the bare branches are smothered in double pink blossom, creating clouds of colour that light up gardens and streetscapes.

The young coppery-bronze foliage emerges alongside the flowers, maturing to fresh green in summer and turning fiery orange-red in autumn. This seasonal shift ensures the tree delivers interest well beyond its peak blossom moment. Its vase-shaped crown gradually broadens with age, creating an elegant silhouette.

‘Kanzan’ is a popular choice for avenues, lawns, and large borders, where it provides strong seasonal highlights. Hardy and tolerant, it grows well in most soils and settings, requiring little maintenance once established. Its dramatic floral display makes it a true garden icon.
