The most graceful flowering tree in the temperate world. The one that stops everyone.

Prunus subhirtella, the Weeping Higan Cherry, produces one of the most breathtaking ornamental displays available in any temperate garden, its long, arching, pendulous branches sweeping to the ground and covering themselves in pale pink to white blossoms in early spring, creating a curtain of color that moves in the gentlest wind and transforms every surrounding view. It blooms earlier than most other flowering cherries, sometimes while late frost is still a possibility, and the individual blossoms are smaller and more delicate than the large-flowered cultivated cherries, giving it a natural, refined quality that feels closer to something found in the wild than something bred in a nursery. Each seed-grown tree develops its own weeping form and bloom color, making every specimen unique. If you are looking to buy Weeping Cherry seeds or grow weeping higan cherry from seed, this is the tree whose first bloom will stop you in your tracks on a March morning.

  • Pendulous weeping branches sweeping to the ground, covered in pale pink blossoms in early spring
  • Blooms earlier than most other flowering cherries, sometimes in late winter
  • Small, delicate individual blossoms with a refined, natural quality unlike large-flowered cultivated varieties
  • Brilliant orange and gold fall foliage, exceptional for a cherry
  • Each seed-grown tree develops its own unique weeping form and flower color

Things you probably did not know about the Weeping Higan Cherry

The original Higan Cherry at the Washington DC Tidal Basin is over 100 years old. The famous cherry trees of the National Mall were gifted to the United States by Japan in 1912, and among the first planting were Higan Cherry specimens that are still alive today. They are the oldest of the Washington cherry trees and represent an unbroken living connection to the original gift that created one of the most famous spring destinations in the world.

Higan means other shore in Japanese. The Higan Cherry is named after the Buddhist festival of Higan, observed twice yearly at the spring and autumn equinoxes, a time of reflection on the passage to the other shore of existence. The cherry blossoms, blooming at the spring equinox, were associated with the transience of beauty and life that is central to Japanese Buddhist philosophy. The name carries thousands of years of contemplative meaning.

Seed-grown Weeping Cherries cannot be predicted. Unlike clonally propagated nursery weeping cherries that are grafted and reproduced to a specific standard form, seed-grown Prunus subhirtella produces natural variation in weeping habit, flower color from white through pale and deep pink, bloom time, and ultimate size. Some seedlings will develop an exquisite strong weeping form, others a more open arching habit. The uncertainty is part of the experience of growing from seed.

It blooms so early that it occasionally opens in autumn as well. Prunus subhirtella has a tendency in warm autumns to produce scattered blossoms in October and November before full dormancy, a phenomenon called autumn blooming that creates surprising out-of-season flower displays. The same tree may bloom lightly in fall and then flower fully again in early spring, providing two bloom periods in a single growing year.

Great quality and functional
Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th, Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th
Fantastic screen protector! Adheres flawlessly and is easy to install. Doesn’t interfere with screen functionality and doesn’t go cloudy or hazy with use. It fits perfectly on my iPad 11 and was an absolute bargain compared to other protectors that cost 3x as much and never stayed in place without bubbling. Color is crystal clear, you can’t tell it’s there and it is easy to clean too! I definitely recommend!

Superb screen protector
Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th
Order this product with next day delivery for my new iPhone and I’ve had it on there for about a week. It was super easy to put the screen on the phone. It comes with like a guy that looks almost like a cover so excellent no air bubbles underneath knock on wood. I have not dropped my phone yet so I can’t speak to. It’s protectiveness but it seems like it’s gonna do a great job. I would definitely purchase again reasonable price good quality.

Good protector but bubbles at install
Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th
This is probably the 10th or so glass screen protector I have bought and installed for reference. Compared to others I’ve used in the past, it was just as easy to install but I struggled with bubbles under the screen and I took weeks for them to come out. Works as it should, good visibility and protection, just went it was easier and quicker to install.
