Prunus mume, also called Japanese Flowering Apricot, is a compact tree with almond-scented blooms. Flowers range from soft white to deep pink and appear in mid to late winter across southern regions.

This pink flowering tree grows as a small to medium-sized form and adds early-season color to landscapes. These seedlings come from the ‘Peggy Clarke’ variety and tend to show single flowers.

In addition to floral value, Prunus mume also serves as a productive fruit tree. Its early blooming habit makes it a reliable option for winter interest and fruit production in mild climates.
