Overview
A small cherry with stunning, polished bark, and bearing fruit.
 
Description  
The Tibetan cherry is best known, and most easily recognised, for its stunning bark which is a copper-brown in colour and appears polished. Its glowing appearance makes it stand out in any setting. The simple green leaves, small red fruit and white flowers are insignificant by comparison however, they only serve to better exhibit the bark as a feature. This small tree rarely exceeds 6m in height and has a rounded form.
 
Planting Position 
Tolerant of all soil types and soil pH the Tibetan cherry is extremely versatile and an asset to any planting scheme. Given its small size and fairly compact form it makes a good choice for a small garden.
 
Attributes
Cherry trees are most notably known for their stunning flowers and foliar displays, particularly in the autumn, however this cherry brings all year-round interest via its striking bark. In the winter this splash of shining colour brings light and warmth to what can be an otherwise cold and stark environment.
