The Prunus serrulata 'Fugenzo', commonly known as the Fugenzo Cherry, is a spectacular ornamental tree admired for its exquisite blossoms and graceful form. This deciduous tree typically reaches a mature height of 8-10 meters and spreads out to about 6-8 meters, making it an excellent choice for medium to large gardens or as a focal point in landscape designs.

Key features of the Fugenzo Cherry include its profusion of double, pink flowers that bloom in late spring. These blossoms, often arranged in dense clusters, create a stunning visual display that can brighten any outdoor space. The flowers gradually fade to a lighter pink or white as they mature, adding an ever-changing aspect to its beauty. The tree also boasts dark green, serrated leaves that turn vibrant shades of orange and red in the fall, providing year-round interest.

Prunus serrulata 'Fugenzo' thrives best in well-drained, fertile soils, preferring conditions that are slightly acidic to neutral. It performs optimally in full sun to partial shade, ensuring it receives at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily. This tree is relatively low-maintenance but benefits from regular watering, especially during dry spells, and occasional pruning to maintain its shape and health. The Fugenzo Cherry is also known for its resistance to common pests and diseases, making it a robust and reliable addition to any garden setting.
