Russian Almond vs Purple Leaf Sand CherryPrunus tenella Prunus x cistena SOLD OUT ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
Russian Almond is a low maintenance, short, slightly suckering shrub. It is covered with attractive, bright pink flowers in early spring before its foliage emerges.
Purple Leaf Sand Cherry provides bright reddish-purple leaves that turn bronze-green in the fall. In the spring, tiny flowers with a pinkish white hue bloom. The flowers are small, but the impact comes from the shrub blossoming all at once. RUSSIAN ALMOND QUICK FACTSPURPLE LEAF SAND CHERRY QUICK FACTS
