‘Autumnalis’ is a deciduous fruit tree that has a long season of interest opening ½” blossoms that are pale pink to white in color along with black, pea-sized fruit. Showy flowers and fruit attract birds. Better tolerance for summer heat and winter cold than most of the flowering cherries. Its small size and low maintenance nature makes it an ideal ornamental tree for beds and borders, as well as small gardens.
