Thundercloud Plum

A stunning landscape specimen with leaves that emerge ruby red in spring and mature to dark reddish-purple for the rest of the season. Pale pink, single blooms blanket the stems in the spring before the foliage emerges. Small, red edible fruits follow the flowers. It is a wonderfully versatile tree that may be used in lawn, patio and terrace.
