Insights
Bred by the same team that produced the 2024 RHS Plant of the Year winner Prunus Starlight, Crystal Falls shares the same parentage of the autumn-flowering cherry, P. subhirtella ‘Autumnalis Rosea’. Its compact form makes it a considered addition for a smaller space but do allow sufficient space to appreciate its weeping form when positioning in the garden. Foliage turns buttery yellow in autumn, adding to its year-round appeal.
