Akebono Flowering Cherry Tree 6-12 Inches Tall in a 2.5" Pot.

A popular american flowering cherry, Akebono is a small deciduous tree boasting masses of large, soft pink, semi-double flowers along its bare branches in mid spring. The slightly fragrant flowers gradually fade to white as they open fully, adding beauty to the showy canopy of blooms. The spring and summer foliage of glossy dark green leaves turns to golden yellow with orange highlights in fall. Akebono enjoys an upright habit when young, but becomes more spreading with age, making it ideal for planting along walks and over patio.
