Prunus blireiana


Branches are lined with fragrant, rosy pink flowers in late winter before the purled new leavers emerge.
 A hybrid deciduous small tree, Prunus x blireiana is the result of a cross between the Japanese apricot and the purple leaved cherry plum. It is highly regarded because it is the only double flowering purple-foliage ornamental plum tree. Our tree was planted in 1985.
