I have had this tree for 28 Yrs., and I moved it from my old home site, as a seedling.
All I have ever heard these trees called is, Chinese flowering cheery, and some times "Chinese weeping cherry".
I was looking at the tree on plant files, and it said they are not from see, and the ones I have do seed, although some what rare.I will find small seedlings from this tree every now, and then.
I would like to know just what I have here is. Thank you, Mike
Flowering cherry ID
There are many varieties of Japanese Flowering Cherry or Oriental Cherry (Prunus serrulata). It might also be Yoshino Cherry (Prunus X yedoensis, which again has at least a dozen cultivars. When it leafs out, photo a leaf and post it. That will make identification easier.
The indivigual flowers are smaller, than Yoshino, and the tree doesn't spred like that either.
I will get a leaf photo, and speaking of leaves, they are the first to shead in early fall.
Thank you, Mike
The most commonly-available Yoshino cherry's flowers are white, but there are other cultivars, some of which are pink, which I think yours are (from the photo).
