Description
A winter wonder, Prunus x subhirtella ‘Autumnalis’ produces a welcome display of semi-double white flowers, some with a pink tinge, intermittently from November to March. Opening from deep pink buds, the delightful blooms make ‘Autumnalis’ a popular small tree for winter interest and can brighten up the greyest of days.
Flowers are sometimes followed by small fruit that are popular with the birds. A good foil for other plants, dark-green foliage turns attractive shades of yellow, orange and red in the autumn for further interest.
