Full Description

Description: ‘Pink Parasol’ is one of the most beautiful of the Matsumae varieties. The graceful spreading branches are wreathed with heavy clusters of long stemmed blooms in late April. These large pale pink flowers have densely packed petals surrounding a centre of bright green, leafy carpels. The leaves appear ahead of the blossom, and are initially a dark copper bronze colour, becoming green over the summer and then yellow in the autumn.

History: Developed in the 1960s by Masatoshi Asari, a cherry enthusiast living on the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. also known as ‘Matsumae-hanagasa’.

Prunus (Flowering Cherry) Growing Tips: ‘Pink Parasol’ is best grown in well-drained soil, in full sun to achieve the best flower display and autumn colour. Will tolerate most soil types including chalk and clay.

Height and Spread (after 10 years): 5m x 3m
