The Kwanzan produces the fullest pink blooms compared to its Cherry Tree cultivar, and it is one of the easiest flowering trees to grow.

You may recognize these trees for they are one of the main trees showcased in Washington, DC's annual Cherry Blossom Festival. Boasting multi-seasonal interest, the trees are loved beyond just their famous pink flowers. Leaves emerge a deep red before transitioning to green in summer and fading to beautiful yellow fall color.

Flowering Cherry Trees like the Kwanzan are extremely low maintenance and are known to tolerate a range of growing conditions. Ideal conditions for these stunning yard specimen includes full sun and well-draining soil. The infamous trees can also tolerate conditions of part shade and can handle both acid and alkaline soils.
