Prunus ‘Kanzan’
About Prunus 'Kanzan'
These are considered by many the most showy and one of the more popular cherries. Flowering is extravagant with double pink, almost magenta-colored, blossoms borne in hanging clusters of two to five flowers each. Cherry Walk and Esplanade reflect this opulent beauty in a dramatic display. Until recently, this variety was know as 'Sekiyama'.
