Prunus ‘Chocolate Ice’
Dispatched from our expert growing partner and delivered within 7 days.
A flowering cherry tree with soft colour and layered blossom
The Prunus ‘Chocolate Ice’ is chosen for its subtle colour and balanced form. Its blossom opens in soft tones, gradually deepening, giving the tree a more layered and evolving feel through spring.
It settles into the garden easily, offering a calm presence that builds gently rather than demanding attention all at once.
Who this tree is for
This suits gardens where a softer, more refined feature is preferred. It works well in smaller to medium spaces, where its blossom and form can be appreciated without overwhelming the planting around it.
It is often chosen by those looking for something a little different from traditional cherry varieties, while still keeping a natural, easy fit in the garden.
Blossom that develops over time
In spring, semi-double flowers open in pale tones, gradually deepening as they mature. This creates a longer-lasting display with a sense of movement and change.
As the petals fall, fresh foliage follows, carrying the tree through summer before softening into autumn colour.
