Description

A bold display of the double powderpuff blooms that homeowners seek out every spring. The very large flowers emerge deep pink and open to a beautiful light cherry hue. When the blooms fall from the weeping branches, coppery foliage emerges, quickly turning an appealing emerald green before going red and burgundy in autumn.

As part of the Proven Winners ColorChoice Trees program, liners, whips, and finished plants are available only through the network of licensed growers.
