Bare Root | 5–6ft Tall | By Direct Plants
Graceful, light-filled, and beautifully seasonal, Prunus ‘Snow Goose’ is supplied as a premium bare root flowering cherry tree at 5–6ft tall by Direct Plants. Grown and carefully selected at our award-winning family nursery in Norfolk, this refined ornamental variety is admired for its elegant form and exceptional spring display.
Famed for its profusion of pure white blossom, ‘Snow Goose’ brings a sense of freshness and calm to the garden each spring. Its upright habit and gently arching branches make it particularly well suited to feature planting, avenues, and contemporary garden designs where form and subtle beauty are paramount.
(Prunus ‘Snow Goose’ – Ornamental, approx. 20–25ft / 6–7.5m at maturity)
In early to mid-spring, ‘Snow Goose’ is covered in clouds of single white flowers that appear in graceful clusters along the branches. Fresh green foliage follows, turning soft shades of yellow and orange in autumn. The tree develops a neat, upright structure that matures into a lightly spreading crown, offering year-round interest without overpowering the space.
Fully hardy and adaptable, this variety thrives in most soil types and prefers a sunny or lightly shaded position. It performs best when planted directly into the ground, where it can develop its natural shape and flowering potential to full effect.
