Japanese Cherry

Prunus serrulata kanzan, Family - Rosaceae



A deciduous tree - and since it is sterile, it will not bear fruit.   Native to Japan, Korea and China.  It has pink double flowers in clusters of 2-5.  Pretty avenue trees, but have shallow roots and not suitable for home gardens.



All information here is from Landscape Architecture Blog.  Pictures were sent to me by S - and were taken a month ago in London in April.
