Set Of 4 Japanese Sierkers - Prunus nipponica 'Brillant' - Height 35cm - 9cm pot

Bring a touch of spring joy to your garden with this set of 4 Prunus nipponica ‘Brillant’, a compact Japanese cherry known for its exuberant flowering. This ornamental shrub blooms as early as March with an abundance of semi-double white-pink flowers, even before the leaves sprout. Its early flowering makes it one of the first true spring blooms in the garden.

The cherry tree grows upright and compact, eventually forming a broad, round crown. Over the years, it develops from a shrub into a small tree about 2 to 4 metres tall. Ideal as a solitary in a border, or in group plantings for an ornamental structure. After flowering, small red fruits appear, and in autumn the dark green leaves provide extra colour with a striking autumn colouration.

Plus points:

• Rich blooms in shades of white-pink in March

• Compact growth: ideal for small and medium-sized gardens

• Attractive to bees and other pollinators

• Small ornamental cherry as decorative detail

• Very hardy and low-maintenance

Care tips:
Plant the Prunus nipponica ‘Brillant’ in a sunny spot in well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Prune lightly after flowering to keep the shape compact. This cherry tree is resistant to frost and requires little maintenance.
