Overview & Specifications
Prunus 'Snow Fountain' - Prunus Snofozam
Few ornamental trees command attention the way Snow Fountain does in full spring bloom. Cascading branches dissolve into a curtain of pure white flowers, delivering a refined, sculptural presence that reads with equal force in intimate courtyards and expansive formal landscapes.
Why Snow Fountain Cherry
Spectacular spring flowering: Branches are blanketed in dense white blooms, creating one of the most striking seasonal displays available in ornamental stock.
Graceful weeping architecture: The soft, cascading silhouette brings movement and structural elegance to any composition year-round.
Refined scale: Maturing to 4–6 metres, it commands presence without dominating surrounding plantings or built form.
Four-season interest: White spring flowers give way to fresh summer foliage and warm autumn colour, ensuring continued visual contribution across the calendar.
Low intervention once established: A reliable, long-lived specimen requiring minimal ongoing maintenance.
Ideal Applications
Specimen feature planting: A singular focal point of exceptional impact during spring, and a sculptural form for the remainder of the year.
Courtyard and contained landscapes: Compact proportions and weeping habit are well suited to designed outdoor rooms and tight urban footprints.
Formal and Japanese-influenced design: The disciplined weeping structure integrates naturally into restrained, precision-driven planting schemes.
Open lawn contrast: Planted against turf or ground cover, the cascading canopy creates a dramatic, painterly focal point.
