Flowering Cherry - Yoshino
Prunus x yedoensis ‘Yoshino’
Graceful, with a spreading, broad-rounded, open crown. Fragrant white to pink flowers appear before or during the emergence of the foliage in a profuse and spectacular early spring bloom. Flowers are followed by small ½” black cherries that are loved by birds - especially cardinals, robins, and waxwings. Lovely specimens.
'Yoshino' flowering cherries are the stars of many flowering cherry festivals around the US. They were introduced to the US from Japan around 1902.
Yoshino flowering cherries are hybrids, with science only recently confirming that they are a cross between Prunus speciosa as father plant and Prunus pendula f. ascendens as the mother plant. Both of these species grow wild in Japan.
The oldest known Yoshino flowering cherry tree surviving in Japan today is from 1878.
Yoshino flowering cherry trees are included in the The City of Asheville's Recommended Species List (2022).
