A Japanese cherry tree is one of the most captivating additions you can make to any New Zealand garden. Prized for their spectacular clouds of pink or white spring blossoms, these ornamental trees bring a sense of charm and tranquility reminiscent of famous cherry blossom festivals. While Japanese cherry trees are especially loved for their flowers, many varieties also offer attractive autumn foliage and a graceful form year-round. If you’re searching for a tree that delivers striking seasonal interest and draws in pollinators, the Japanese cherry tree is a perfect choice.
Cherry Dawson
The 'Dawson' Cherry produces large, black coloured fruit in summer. The fruit has red flesh that is sweet with a lovely flavour. It requires another variety planted alongside (“a pollinator”) to produce good fruit yields, such as 'Early Rivers' or 'Stella'. This deciduous tree grows upright to about 5 m tall and 3 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site. Cherries require a cold winter to set fruit, hence they are less suited to regions where winters tend to be mild. The 'Dawson' Cherry is commonly used for fruit production and makes an attractive tree in its own right.
