Flagpole Cherry Ornamental Tree Description

The Flagpole Cherry is an elegant ornamental tree renowned for its slender, upright form and stunning seasonal displays. This deciduous tree typically reaches heights of 5-7 metres (16-23 feet) and is characterised by its narrow, columnar shape, making it an excellent choice for smaller gardens, urban landscapes, or as a focal point in larger spaces. The Flagpole Cherry's graceful silhouette and compact size make it particularly suitable for tight areas where a traditional broad tree might be impractical.

In spring, the Flagpole Cherry bursts into bloom with an abundance of pale pink, semi-double flowers that appear in clusters along the branches before the leaves emerge. These fragrant blossoms not only create a breathtaking display but also attract a variety of pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, enhancing the biodiversity of the garden. Following the flowering period, the tree produces small, inconspicuous cherries, which are generally not significant and may not be produced every year.

The foliage is a lush green throughout the summer, providing a beautiful backdrop for the flowers. In autumn, the leaves turn vibrant shades of orange and red, adding seasonal interest and colour to the landscape before they fall. The Flagpole Cherry is particularly prized for its ornamental qualities, offering year-round beauty.

Pruning Advice

Pruning is essential for maintaining the health and shape of the Flagpole Cherry. The best time to prune is in late winter or early spring, just before the new growth begins. This timing allows for better visibility of the tree's structure and helps to minimise the risk of disease. Lightly remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to improve air circulation and light penetration.

Avoid heavy pruning, especially in spring, as this can negatively impact flowering. Regularly inspect the tree for signs of pests or diseases and take appropriate action to maintain its vitality. With proper care and attention, the Flagpole Cherry will provide years of stunning beauty and enjoyment, enhancing any garden or landscape with its elegance and charm.
