Award-winning Prunus 'The Bride' is a small, rounded, deciduous tree boasting pure white, single flowers adorned with bright red anthers in early to mid-spring. Opening from pink buds, the flat, open blooms are quite appealing with their large petals. Born in abundance along the bare branches, they provide a breathtaking floral display. As the flowers wane, the mid-green leaves emerge and create a fresh summer canopy before turning brilliant shades of red and orange in fall. A small shrubby tree that makes a fine specimen for a lawn and is ideal for growing in containers.
