Prunus Accolade is a popular ornamental cherry tree, characterised by its graceful spreading habit, and well-suited to the climate of the UK.

The young branches appear to be weighed down by the mass of pink blossom in the spring.

In autumn the leaves develop orange - red tints.

Accolade makes a good choice as a medium-sized specimen tree for lawns or avenues.
