Prunus Blireana (Flowering Plum) is a striking deciduous ornamental tree, prized for its double, pale pink blossoms that cover the bare branches in early spring. The vibrant floral display is followed by deep purple-bronze foliage that adds rich colour and contrast through the warmer months. Its compact size and upright form make it an excellent feature tree in both formal and informal gardens.
This low-maintenance tree is ideal for use in garden borders, driveways, or as a standalone focal point. It performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and brings seasonal beauty with minimal upkeep. A great choice for adding spring colour and ornamental foliage to small and medium landscapes.
