Prunus x subhirtella Accolade

Accolades Cherry

Accolade Flowering Cherry (Prunus ‘Accolade’) opens soft pink, semi-double flowers along slender branches in early spring. The blossoms appear before the leaves and hang in small, loose clusters.

Its open, spreading crown has a light appearance. Dark green summer leaves can turn orange and yellow in fall, while smooth reddish-brown bark gives the tree an additional ornamental feature.

Plant in sun or partial shade with room for the broad crown.
