Prunus Elvins is a compact decorative tree that produces single white flowers covering its long, slender branches in spring. During peak bloom, the blossoms are white with hints of pink, gradually transitioning to a coral pink hue, creating a stunning spring showcase early in the season. Initially upright, Prunus Elvins develops a pleasing rounded form as it matures. While it can thrive in partial shade, it blooms more abundantly in full sunlight. With its deep rusty red autumn foliage and lush green summer leaves, Prunus Elvins offers continuous visual interest. Ideal for smaller gardens and urban landscapes, this tree typically reaches dimensions of 3m x 3m and is commonly featured in Japanese-style gardens. Prunus Elvins usually maintains its shape without pruning but can be trimmed if necessary. It thrives in humus-rich, well-draining soil and requires full sun for optimal growth.
