At The Plant Company, we offer a range of Prunus varieties suited to New Zealand gardens. From the double pink blooms of Prunus Kanzan to the fragrant white flowers of Prunus Mt Fuji, each variety brings unique charm. The New Zealand-developed Prunus Awanui is valued for its disease resistance and prolific pale pink blossoms. Explore our selection to find the perfect Prunus tree to enhance your outdoor space.
Successful Prunus tree cultivation starts with proper planting and ongoing care. Choose a sunny, well-drained site rich in organic matter for planting. Prunus trees benefit from regular watering, especially during dry spells, and a balanced fertilizer application in early spring to encourage healthy growth. Pruning after flowering helps maintain the tree’s shape and remove any damaged branches, promoting good air circulation and reducing disease risk.
The Plant Company provides high-quality Prunus trees grown specifically for New Zealand’s conditions. We offer expert advice to help you select, plant, and maintain your trees for long-lasting beauty. Our convenient online ordering and nationwide delivery make it easy to bring these elegant deciduous trees into your garden with confidence.
