Prunus inc. Lotte

Prunus incisa 'Lotte' is a compact, deciduous ornamental cherry valued for its early spring display of white to pale pink blossom, followed by fresh green foliage for summer. It thrives in Irish gardens in full sun or light shade and moist but well‑drained, moderately fertile soil, and is fully hardy. With its modest proportions and graceful habit, it makes an excellent feature for small gardens, courtyards, or mixed borders.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
