Hi! I could use some help trying to understand why my flowering cherries have two different types of blossoms on one tree. I have 1 Kwanzan in the far corner of my yard, a Mt. Fugi in another far corner, and 1 what I think is a Yoshino next to what I think is a Akebono. The akebone next to the Yoshino, has some beautiful double blossoms on it ( pink like the ones you would see on a Shirofugen) and some single blossoms on them. What is going on???
Confused cherry tree Most ornamental cherry trees are grafted. We suspect that your tree that has both single and double blossoms has possably had two different varieties grafted on to it or one branch has reverted to the origonal rootstock.
Thanks and... Thanks for your response. Is there anything I can do to prevent more branches from converting back? If I cut the converted "odd" branch off, will it just grow back? Thanks!
