A beautiful ornamental plum tree with deep purple leaves. Flowers appear in May, after the leaves have started to wrap out, and they are pale, nearly white with light purple tint. They do not flower as richly as the flowering cherries, however, this small tree is exquisite for its foliage. The small eliptical leaves are deep purple and remain such for the whole season. Ideal as a solo plant or in a group next to bright green-leafed trees and shrubs. Suitable also for hedges, too. We suggest to trim it when young to avoid certain broomness ... Likes full sun, tolerates any soil.
