The Weeping Cherry tree is a superb blossoming tree that has both spectacular floral and foliage beauty and high versatility. These trees are grafted which means they stay small and do not grow in height once planted. Instead they mature by growing a thicker trunk and a much fuller weeping head.
Highly recommended as a landscape feature plant, with masses of flowers in spring. It’s adaptable to a wide range of conditions including heat and moderate drought. Good disease resistance, flowers best in full sun.
The 'Rosea' pink weeping cherry is best kept out of the wind so as to retain the blossoms and autumn leaves for longer. Weeping cherries don't like soggy roots so plant in well draining soil or in a mound above the soil line to assist with drainage.
It's worth mentioning that weeping cherry trees are a type of ornamental cherry, which means they don't produce edible fruit but instead put their energy into beautiful flowers. | | Roses are easily one of the most popular and widely cultivated groups of flowering plants. Numerous different cultivars have been produced over the last tow centuries although roses have been grown for millennia before their popularity bloomed. Renown for their flowers and beauty they are also loved for other reasons such as their fruit, the rose hip which can be made into an old fashioned jam or for garden uses such as ground covers and hedging.
Roses range in size and variety from your standard and bush roses right up there with your climbers and weeping varieties, amongst all their beautiful colour, variety and hardy nature there is bound to be the perfect rose out there for your garden. |
