Prunus serrulata Shirotae

Prunus serrulata ‘Shirotae’ (commonly known as ‘Mt. Fuji cherry’) is a stunning ornamental cherry tree known for its elegant, spreading branches and profuse display of white blossoms in the spring. This cultivar typically reaches a height of 4.5 to 6 meters (15 to 20 feet) and has a similar spread, forming a broad, rounded crown. The flowers, which appear before the leaves fully emerge, create a striking visual impact with their pure white petals and light fragrance. ‘Shirotae’ is prized in gardens and parks for its aesthetic appeal and is a popular choice for creating picturesque landscapes.
