One of our earliest cherries to flower, in an outrageous shade of pink, is Prunus ‘Collingwood Ingram’ AGM. This cultivar is named after cherry expert Collingwood Ingram, widely regarded as the man that saved many rare Japanese cherries from extinction. Noticeably upright, this tree can stand like vivid pink spires against a clear blue sky and is great for adding vibrant spring colour to the garden. At Wisley, we have a gorgeous group to spot near the entrance of The Pinetum – well worth a look!
