This is a beautiful tree that produces a profusion of fragrant, rose-pink, double blossoms from late-winter to early-spring. Its rich purple leaves persist throughout the summer and maintain their color until they fall in autumn. It is great for smaller gardens and makes an excellent street tree. Prunus x blireiana is deciduous, not native to New Zealand, and a hybrid between Prunus mume and Prunus cerasifera 'Atropurpurea' (syn. Prunus cerasifera 'Pissardii'). Prunus x blireiana was developed in France and introduced into commerce in 1906.

Foliage

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
