prunus autumnalis

Keele University Arboretum

Prunus 'Matsumae-hayazaki'

Also called Prunus 'Kechimyaku-zakura'.

Named by Professor Yasaka Hayashi as 'Matsumae-hayazaki' in 1974.

The original tree, called 'Kechimyaku-zakura' has been grown in the precincts of the Kozen Temple, Matsumae. It is said to be either an intermediate between Prunus x sieboldii cv. caespitose and Prunus verecunda or to be similar to Prunus serrulata f. cericea (Miyoshi).
