Weeping Cherry ·
Weeping cherries announce spring with their lush blooms cascading along their graceful branches.
Blooms last for weeks and leave a carpet of pink beneath. Summer foliage is a lush green and fall leaves are yellow to orange. Blooms attract pollinators. Even in winter the tree provides a graceful silhouette.
