Prunus 'Collingwood Ingram'

(Flowering Cherry) An unusual small cherry tree with very pretty, deep-pink spring flowers which was originally selected from a set of Prunus 'Kursar' seedlings. The leaves are dark green in spring and summer, turning fantastic shades of red orange and yellow before falling in autumn. The lovely flowers and autumn colour combined with an elegant habit makes this a superb garden tree.
