Partial Shade to Full Sun (At Least 3 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height 5 - 6 FeetMature Spread 5 - 6 FeetGrowing Zones 5 - 8Pink Flowering Almond, or Prunus Glandulosa, claim to fame is its stunning display of petite, pastel-pink blossoms. In the spring, this vigorous shrub will outperform its neighbors with hundreds of double-pink flowers attached to robust, brown stems. In late April, when the flowers open, your yard will bee buzzing with excitement. This versatile plant was a favorite of Thomas Jefferson and planted all around his Monticello estate.Small and compact, the Pink Flowering Almond is dense and has a multi-stemmed growth habit. Its great for small spaces. Butterflies and honeybees adore these blooms as much as you will. After the flowers, shiny green foliage appears that turns a coppery-yellow in the fall. This magnificent plant can grow up to 5 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide, but does not produce edible fruit. This deciduous shrub is great to use in planters, in groups, and in pollinator gardens.Dwarf Pink Flowering Almond CareFlowering Almonds are adapted to a wide range of climates. They like to be in well-drained, medium-textured soil, where they will receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Flowering almonds are somewhat drought tolerant but prefer moist soil throughout the season. Fertilize with a good tree and shrub fertilizer to maintain growth and flower production. Add 3 inches of mulch to protect the plant from moisture stress.Pink Flowering Almonds should be pruned right after flowering to keep the plant-size in check. Remove a few of the oldest and thickest stems every year to ensure a good flower crop for the following year. Also remove any suckers to keep the plant tidy. If stored in a container make sure that the roots are covered in the winter to prevent damage to the plant.Dwarf Pink Flowering Almond SpacingPlant Pink Flowering Almond trees at least 5 feet apart. If your soil has bad drainage you can build a mound 3 feet wide and 18 inches tall to give the roots some air.Pink Flowering Almond InformationUSDA Hardiness Zones: 5 - 8Plant Type: TreesLight Exposure: Partial Shade to Full Sun (At Least 3 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height: 5 - 6 FeetMature Spread: 3 - 4 FeetSpacing: 3 - 4 FeetHabit: UprightFlower Color(s): PinkFlower Description: Double Pink-ColoredBloom Period: Late AprilFoliage Type: DeciduousFoliage Color(s): GreenFoliage Description: Seasonal Interest: Spring FloweringWatering: AverageResists: Deer, RabbitTolerates: DroughtAttracts: Bees, ButterfliesContainer Role: Uses: Borders, Wildlife GardensFeatures: Attracts PollinatorsBrand: Common Name: Pink Flowering AlmondOther Name(s): Scientific Name: PRUNUS GLANDULOSA `ROSEA` | All Plants > Border Plants Plant Addicts 1000146-pc
