Prunus ‘Amanogawa’ is a beautiful ornamental cherry tree. It has an upright or columnar habit, hence its common name, the flagpole cherry. In late spring it's smothered in semi-double, pale pink blossom, popular with pollinators. The foliage is green-bronze in spring and fresh green in summer. In autumn, the leaves turn orange and red before falling.
Prunus 'Amanogawa' is one of the best trees for small gardens. It holds the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.
Prunus ‘Amanogawa’ thrives in a moist but well-drained soil and a sheltered spot – strong winds may strip the tree of its blossom. Grow in full sun for the best flowers. Remove damaged, diseased or crossing branches in midsummer.
