A popular flowering plum with a strongly upright, columnar habit ideal for narrow spaces. It features richly coloured foliage that shifts from reddish/bronze new growth to dark green-bronze with purple undersides. In early spring, it produces small white flowers with pink/red stamens. Hardy and adaptable, this tree is perfect for gardens, screening, streetscapes, and avenues where lateral space is limited.
Care Requirements
This tree thrives best in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soils. Moderately drought tolerant, it suits low-water gardens. Pruning is usually not needed but can be done lightly after flowering to maintain a neat shape.
