like the trees in Washington DC?

They are sterile. They don't produce seeds. If you live anywhere (except the
Southwest) in Zone 6 or warmer, just go to a nursery & ask for a 'Kwanzan'
cherry. However, that variety is not especially good for bonsai. If you want
something similar, get 'Hally Jolivette' or one of the species cherries.
