I will definitely ask at Van Dusen to have a look at the trees. If you'd like to get a similar appearance to a Japanese cherry new kinds of dwarf flowering crabapples are in production. If you want a short one look for the 'Carillon' cultivar. Like silverbell Styrax japonicus also produces some comparatively short and squat specimens but can sometimes be as much as 50' tall, as is one in Seattle (measured 49' high in 1990). In Trees of Seattle - Second Edition the same author lists one over 62' tall for the Washington Park Arboretum (as well as others of lesser stature in various locations). Jacobson ( North American Landscape Trees) reports that one in PA was 95' tall in 1980.

The first two are trees, usually growing much taller than 10' and the third a large bush. My garden is at about 2000 feet, not much wind, hot days, cool nights, lots of snow cover, rarely gets below -23C, more like -15C as the coldest. Also, would anyone know where I might purchase one of them?Īs always in BC, elevation is a factor. Is either of these fragrant? I also have been intrigued by the Heptacodium miconioides (Seven Sun Flower) as a fragrant (jasmine scented) autumn blooming small tree.ĭoes anyone know where I might see these three trees growing in Vancouver as I will be there the third wk in March to see the cherry blossoms. I have seen one or the other of these (I think) on the boulevard at the bus stop outside the Oak St entrance to the Van Dusen Gardens. The information I have is they are both hardy to zone 5, grow 8-10 feet in full sun to partial shade and bloom in spring, the Sytrax pulling ahead as it was described as a delicate, graceful tree with wide spreading branches. Arrivals, the start of cherries & cooler weather -.I would like to have some input on the suitability of the Mtn Silverbell (Halesia monticola 'Rosea" versus the Japanese Snowbell (Styrax Japonica 'Rosea') as a small graceful tree in my garden - a substitute Japanese Cherry.Roses, Cherries & Walking in the Wild - Week 2.Eastern Walkabout - Plants in the City - Istanbul.Mulberries, Mulch and Rainy Days - Week 3 - ESC Pr.Mulching trees, Sowing seeds and Oppressive Heat.Eastern Walkabout - Plants in the City - Still in.If you are thinking of reasons why you should do this course and whether this course is suitable for you, take a look here where we lay it all out.

Cherry compote, along with Cornelian Cherry syrup made from the fruits of Cornus mas was one of the first things we learned to process when we arrived in Bulgaria over 15 years ago now, from a special lady named Ivanka. This year with the help of our ESC volunteers, we've made some cherry compote, and also some jam. Slight variations in ripening times depending on microclimates and elevation also play a part. So while we just managed to harvest our main crop before the first heavy rain, other people around the country haven't been so lucky. Firstly, the fruit sugar content becomes markedly reduced after frequent heavy rainfall, and secondly, the fruit can split and quickly start to decompose. We usually enter a somewhat tropical weather cycle at this time of year with hot, sunny spells quickly interrupted with heavy downpours, which are difficult to predict and can really affect the cherries. I t's been a bumper year for cherries in our region, but there are big differences around the country depending on local weather patterns.
