Prunus Shirofugen
Shirofugen Cherry
Shirofugen Flowering Cherry (Prunus serrulata ‘Shiro-fugen’) opens double white blossoms from pink buds. As the flowers age, they turn pink-mauve, creating a changing display within the loose clusters.
Young leaves carry crimson and bronze tones. The tree develops a spreading, relatively flat-topped crown, with some branches arching downward to soften the outline.
