I'm afraid I don't remember who recommended this but I'm in their
debt! Ray
had to go down to the Duchy Nursery the other day and he brought me
back a
Prunus incisa Kojo-no-mai. It's a gorgeous plant and a good one for
people
looking for smaller trees as it's slow growing to 3 metres. We've
planted it
among the acers by the wildlife pond and it's in full bloom now, so
it
flowers at a 'useful' time of year, too.
I'm not sure if it was me who recommended that one, but I have
certainly in the past recommended P. incisa 'Pendula' Ours is still a
delightful miniature weeping tree and in full bloom now - a soft
delicate pink that will fade to white soon.
Our 'Kojo-no-mai' looks as if it will take a great many years to reach
anything like 3 metres - a lovely little plant though.

Well, if it was you, thank you! Ours is tiny, only around 2' but it's still
a thing of beauty. And to my real delight a customer brought in a whole lot
of Stachyurus cuttings the other day - another thing that was on my 'want'
list.
