Prunus 'Snow Fountains' is a graceful weeping ornamental cherry renowned for its dramatic spring display. In early spring, its cascading branches become densely covered with pure white flowers, creating a waterfall-like effect that gives the plant its name. The naturally arching form develops into a compact, elegant structure, making it especially suitable for smaller gardens or as a standout specimen. After flowering, fresh green foliage emerges to provide a neat summer outline. Hardy and visually striking, 'Snow Fountains' delivers strong seasonal impact with minimal ongoing maintenance.
