- Planting & Care
- A small, weeping tree variety with stunning cascades of deep ruby-red, heart-shaped leaves.
- In spring, bare branches burst with clusters of small purple flowers from March to May.
- Foliage transforms into a translucent dark burgundy in autumn, creating a breathtaking stained-glass effect in sunlight.
- Offers year-round visual appeal with its unique form and seasonal colour changes.
- Reaching only 2m in height and width, it is perfect for smaller gardens, mixed borders, or large patio containers.
- A hardy, low-maintenance deciduous tree.
- Our trees are expertly pruned before shipping to encourage a stronger, bushier shape. The weeping form will develop over time.
