Set of 3 Unique White Cherries – Prunus tomentosa ‘White Ninja’ – 9cm pot

This set of 3 Prunus tomentosa ‘White Ninja’ consists of a special selection within the Nanking cherry. What sets this variety apart is its creamy white fruit colour - a rarity within the fruit range, where fruits usually turn red.

In addition to its unusual fruit, ‘White Ninja’ blooms with snow-white blossom in spring. This gives this shrub both ornamental value and edible application. Planting several plants together results in better pollination and richer fruit setting.

About Prunus tomentosa ‘White Ninja’

Pure white flowers appear along the branches in spring. After flowering, relatively large, creamy-white cherries develop. The flavour is similar to that of red-fruited varieties. Due to the light fruit colour, the fruits are less likely to be recognised as ripe by birds, which can help reduce foraging damage in some situations.

Yields tend to be slightly lower than some other Nanking cherries, but the combination of white flowering and light fruit makes this selection special.

The shrub grows compact and bushy and reaches a height of about 1.5 to 2 metres. It grows best in a sunny spot in well-drained soil and is very hardy.
