This Ornamental Cherry tree is a variety called prunus “Kojo No Mai” and is a lovely compact flowering shrub which will make a great feature in any garden. They have pretty spring flowers, and fiery red and orange foliage in the Autumn.
Long term your tree will do best planted out in the garden or, if you would prefer, can be potted up into a larger container and kept on a patio.
Your Ornamental Cherry will flower best in full sun and so choose a sunny, well drained spot in the garden where you will be able to enjoy the spring blooms.
For best results when planting out, dig a large hole and firm your tree in with manure, seaweed or any other rich compost. A wooden stake is also a good idea to help your tree grow tall and straight. Once planted out, keep your plant well-watered whilst it is establishing and then water as necessary, aim to keep the soil moist in particularly warm weather.
Problem solving:
Ornamental Cherry trees are hardy plants that should establish themselves quickly once planted out.
However, underwatering, extremes of temperature and shock can all be the cause of leaf drop. If you notice your plant suffering, check that the soil is not drying out too much between waterings and consider moving to a sunnier position sheltered from cold winds.
If keeping your tree in a pot be especially careful not to allow it to dry out in the spring/summer.
