Product Description
In 2014 the Cherry Kordia Tree, also known as 'Prunus Kordia', was awarded an RHS Award of Garden Merit, and it isn't difficult to see why. This compact, dwarf variety is grown on dwarf root stock and will reach a maximum mature height of just 180cm, making it the ideal choice for growing in the border or as a potted patio plant. The elegant, early spring blossoms of the Cherry Kordia are followed in April and May by a heavy crop of larger than average, high quality fruits. These are tartly sweet in taste and boast glossy, deep red skins which are resistant to splitting. Root wrapped fruit tree supplied, 50cm+.
