  • Architectural zig-zag branches – Unique branching structure adds year-round visual interest

Product Description

The Prunus incisa ‘Kojo-no-mai’ Cherry Blossom Tree from Green Inspiration is a charming ornamental cherry prized for its delicate spring flowers and distinctive zig-zag branching structure. This compact deciduous shrub or small tree grows to around 1.5–2.5 metres tall, making it ideal for patio containers, courtyard gardens, or smaller landscapes where space is limited.

In early spring, clusters of single white flowers with soft pink centres appear along the branches before the leaves emerge, creating a beautiful blossom display reminiscent of traditional Japanese cherry trees. As the seasons progress, mid-green lance-shaped foliage fills the plant, providing gentle structure through summer before turning warm yellow tones in autumn.

Because of its manageable size and decorative form, Prunus ‘Kojo-no-mai’ is a popular choice for ornamental planting, cottage gardens, wildlife gardens, and urban spaces. The early blossom attracts bees and other pollinators, making it both attractive and beneficial for garden biodiversity.

Supplied in a 15 litre pot, this well-established cherry blossom tree from Green Inspiration is ready to plant and enjoy in borders, beds, or large containers.
