.
Weeping Cherry is an ornamental medium size deciduous flowering tree that is native to Japan introduced into the US in about 1862. It typically grows 20-30’ tall with a pronounced weeping form of slender whip-like branches and light pink to rose-pink flowers. The 3/4 to1” flowers are borne in clusters of 2 to 5 flowered umbels in late winter to early spring before the leaves emerge. The bark is bronzy-copper in color and lenticel, becoming gray in color and platy to exfoliating with age. Leaves are Elliptic to ovate, doubly serrate to 4 inches long and stay glossy green throughout the summer and into the fall when they turn a red or vivid yellow before leaving the tree bare in winter. The drooping bare branches even lend a soothing grace to the landscape in winter. There is nothing quite like the Weeping Higan Cherry in full bloom in the spring.



Weeping Cherry seeds possess a thick, impermeable seed-coat which prevents or significantly retards germination. Scarification, cold stratification and moisture enhance germination.

Scarify: Soak in water for 24 hours

Stratify: Cold 90 days, 40 Degrees F

Germination: Sow 1/4” Deep
