A striking choice for smaller gardens, ‘Crimson Pointe’ boasts an upright, columnar growth habit and dense purple foliage, offering a sleeker, space-saving alternative to Prunus cerasifera ‘Nigra’. While it may bear edible round fruit that ripens in mid-summer, its true charm lies in its vibrant purple leaves that create a captivating contrast with the elegant white blossoms, occasionally blushed with a delicate pink hue, that form in mid spring.
When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly. Lightly prune in summer to retain the shape and cut back any dead, diseased or crossing branches.
