Prunus serrulata 'Kwanzan'
Choose Kwanzan Cherry if you want a heavy pink spring flower show and have open space for a broad canopy. The tradeoff: after bloom, it settles into a green ornamental tree with normal cherry cleanup.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A | The heavy pink bloom is the main reason to plant it, but the show is concentrated in spring. |
| Growth Rate | B+ | It fills in at a useful pace without being the right choice for instant privacy. |
| Maintenance | B- | Plan on cleanup after bloom and occasional pruning to keep the branch structure tidy. |
| Deer Resistance | C- | Deer readily browse and rub young trees like this, so protect it while it establishes where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | C- | It needs breathing room, so it is a poor fit for tight beds or narrow side yards. |
| Screening Value | D | It is planted for flowers and form, not for dependable privacy screening. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Kwanzan Cherry where the customer has open lawn space and wants spring flowers more than screening, fall color, or a compact tree.
| Mature Height | 35 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 30 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 5a-9b |
| Spacing | 27.5 ft |
| Sun | Full Sun |
| Moisture | Average to moist |
| Growth Habit | Upright, vase-shaped |
Not in a useful edible way; plant this one for flowers, not harvest.
Some petal, leaf, and twig cleanup is normal, especially after bloom and in fall.
Give it open space away from roofs, walks, drive edges, and tight foundation beds.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
