Prunus ‘Accolade’ Cherry Blossom Tree – Large 5–6ft Tall in a 7.5 Litre Pot – Stunning Ornamental Flowering Cherry Tree – By Direct Plants
Bring breathtaking spring colour and graceful elegance to your garden with the beautiful Prunus ‘Accolade’ Cherry Blossom Tree, supplied here as a premium large 5–6ft tall specimen in a 7.5 litre pot by Direct Plants. Carefully grown and selected at our award-winning family nursery in Norfolk, this exceptional ornamental cherry tree is highly prized for its masses of soft pink blossom, elegant spreading shape, and superb seasonal interest.
Prunus ‘Accolade’ is regarded as one of the finest flowering cherry trees thanks to its spectacular early spring blossom display and graceful arching branches. Before the foliage fully emerges, the branches become covered in clusters of semi-double pale pink flowers, creating a truly stunning ornamental feature that transforms the garden each spring.
Fresh bronze-tinted young foliage appears alongside the blossom before maturing to rich green during summer, followed by attractive golden-orange autumn tones later in the season. Its elegant spreading habit and gently arching canopy make this ornamental cherry ideal for lawns, borders, feature planting, and larger patio containers where year-round beauty and structure are desired.
Supplied as a strong, healthy, well-established specimen in a large 7.5 litre pot, this premium tree provides instant impact and excellent establishment potential.
