Prunus serrulata 'Shirotae'

Early pink buds open to very fragrant, semi-double clusters of pendulous, white flowers that fade to purplish-pink on horizontal branches. While not technically a weeping tree, this strongly lateral growth gives the tree the appearance of a flat umbrella. While the original name in Japanese means "white cloth", it was released in the US in the early 20th century under the name Mt. Fuji.

On this Gisela 5 rootstock, the tree will grow to only 10-12' tall. Prefers evenly moist soil in full sun conditions with good air circulation.

Hardy to USDA Zone: 5

Mature Height: 10'-12' (Dwarf)

Sun: Full Sun

Bloom Time: Early Spring

Rootstock: Gisela 5 

Size: Dwarf (4'-5')

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • Is there a dwarf cherry tree or other fruit tree that mt Fuji will pollinate that you currently have in stock? Preferably that is a beautiful bloomer and has interesting fall colors. Thanks D

    The Sweetheart Cherry would be an excellent choice!

  • How late into fall could these be planted? At what point would you recommend waiting until spring?

    This is a bareroot tree, so it is available to ship starting in early spring 2025. It will be a robust 4'-5' tree, about 1/2" caliper. 

  • Are these grafted or are they growing on their own root

    These are grafted trees.

  • How wide of an area do you need to plant this in? Thanks

    Roughly 12'-15' wide.
