Single Stem Tibetan Cherry Tree | Prunus serrulaCalling all bark fans! Tibetan Cherry is an absolute standout, with lustrous, coppery red colour that brings a much needed shot of vibrance to the winter landscape Also known as the Birch Bark Tree, Paperbark and Cellophane Bark Cherry, it's got more aliases than David Bowie. About that bark as the tree grows, it peels off in translucent strips that look like stained glass when the sun shines through them. After a few years the trunk will also develop

and their smaller stature means they fit well into even the most compact spaces

Blooms are frosted with white edging

delicate white flowers precede the appearance of the berries in the spring

blitzed to make pesto sauce and added to pizzas

or in the garden

slender leaves that resemble the skin of a snake

requiring occasional watering and pruning to maintain its shape

A superb variety for providing an abundance of golden yellow blooms through late summer and well into autumn

Growing to just a metre-and-a-half tall when given an annual trim

Crocus announce that spring is coming and some of the earliest flowers to bloom

fern-like foliage adds a layer of texture and beauty

Generally small with sweet smelling perfumes
