Monrovia Double Weeping Rosebud Cherry

The Double Weeping Rosebud Cherry reaches a mature height and width of approximately 20 feet. Given its slow growth rate, it will take several years to reach these dimensions, making it a manageable addition to most landscapes.

This variety is hardy in zone 4, meaning it is quite cold-tolerant. Because it blooms later in the spring than other cherry varieties, it is less susceptible to damage from unexpected late-season frosts.

To maintain a tidy appearance and encourage healthy growth, this tree requires annual pruning. This is best done while the tree is dormant to shape the long, weeping branches.

For optimal health and the most prolific flowering, this tree should be planted in a location that receives full sun. While it can tolerate some variation, insufficient light may result in fewer blooms and less vigorous growth.

No, this variety is self-pollinating. You can plant it as a standalone specimen or in pairs without needing a second tree to ensure it flowers.

It thrives in soil that is average to moist but well-drained. Ensure the planting site does not remain waterlogged, as the roots require proper aeration to prevent rot.
