This is the ultimate weeping cherry. Diminutive and fine-textured, Pink Cascade™ is a strict weeper with blazing pink flowers. Train it up as high as you want it to go and let 'er weep. Best grown in moist, fertile, well-drained loams in full sun to part shade. Best flowering in full sun. It tolerates heat and clay soils but avoid dry soils.  Great as a small patio or specimen tree. Be creative, drape it over a wall, make an archway, or create an espalier dragon with a pink mane!  A dramatic weeper with bright pink flowers.  It was developed as a collaborative project by NC State University and J. Frank Schmidt and Son Nursery.  

To maintain the desired weeping pendulous form, remove all stems that grow vertically. This tree has year-round interest!  In late winter, early spring it blooms in its full glory, and then into summer when its weeping form cools the hot summer as it sways in even the lightest breeze. After the leaves have fallen, its drooping bare branches lend a soothing grace to the winter landscape.
