Prunus mume Pendulais a graceful grafted weeping apricot that brings beauty to the garden when little else is in bloom. Grafted onto a 1.2m standard, its long, pendulous branches cascade elegantly to the ground, creating a striking architectural feature. Among the first ornamental trees to flower each year, it produces a profusion of soft pink, semi-double, lightly fragrant blooms from winter, providing a spectacular display for several weeks. Fresh green foliage follows in spring before turning warm shades of yellow and orange in autumn. An exquisite feature tree for courtyards, cottage gardens, and Japanese-inspired landscapes, where its elegant form can be appreciated throughout the seasons.
