Amanogawa Flagpole Japanese Cherry Blossom - Standard Trees

Prunus serrulata Amanogawa is the must-have flowering cherry for everyone who loves their blossom and is short on space. Naturally column shaped (fastigiate), it won't spread more than about 1.5 metres when mature. The mildly scented, light pink flowers cover the tree in April and May, and the Autumn display is a conflagration of reds and oranges.

How to grow

A hardy and undemanding tree, it only needs well drained soil and close to full sun to look its best, although it will be perfectly fine in partial shade. It isn't recommended for exposed sites where the strong winds will tend to bend it out of shape. It thrives on clay and chalk, and is recommended for the inner city.

Did You Know?

Literally translated, Amanogawa means "Heaven's River", which is the Japanese term for the Milky Way. First recorded in 1886, it was introduced to Britain during the First World War.

Standard trees are measured by their girth in centimetres 1 metre above ground level: their trunk's waist measurement. Unlike sapling trees and hedge plants, standards aren't measured by their height, which will vary quite a bit both between and within species.
So, a 6/8cm standard tree has a trunk with a circumference of 6-8cm and an 8/10 standard has a trunk 8-10cm around. This measurement makes no difference to the tree's final height.
On average, standard trees are 2-3.5 metres tall when they arrive, but we cannot tell you precisely how tall your trees will be before we deliver them.

This tree is also sold as a large "feather" about 175-250cm tall - slightly too small to be graded as a standard.

Pallets (Root balls, large pots, trees etc) £60.00 including VAT per order (FREE For ORDERS Over £240 inc VAT)

*Surcharges to the Highlands and Islands still apply.

Because couriers sometimes experience delays, we schedule delivery by week, not by day. Therefore, please plan your planting day for the weekend at the end of the delivery week or for the week following delivery, at the earliest.
We will email you the day before your plants are due to arrive.

Payment: We do not charge your card until we begin to prepare your order for packing.

Guarantee: If any plants die within a year, we will replace them. We only ask that you follow our planting & growing instructions and sent us clear photographs of the dead plants in situ, so we can help to make sure that the replacement plants succeed. You only pay for the delivery of the replacements.

Please note that our guarantee is void if there is a hosepipe ban in your area: your newly planted hedging must be watered in dry weather while it is establishing. The best way to water is very thoroughly every few days: at least once a week in summer if there is no heavy rain.

Our nursery has been supplying container grown and bareroot hedging plants to gardeners, farmers and town planners since 1949. Our website started in 2003, so we do understand the concerns that you may have about buying hedging plants online. If any of your plants are damaged when they arrive or if you are otherwise not satisfied with your order after you inspect it, please repackage it and contact us. We will give you a refund or send replacements and send a courier to come and collect the unwanted plants.
