Description
Prunus cerasifera ‘Cripoizam’, commonly known as Crimson Pointe™ Flowering Plum, is a striking ornamental tree celebrated for its vibrant, deep burgundy to crimson foliage that provides dramatic year-round color, contrasting beautifully with its delicate pale pink spring blossoms. Originating from the European cherry plum species, this cultivar has been selectively bred to enhance its rich leaf color and compact, upright growth habit, making it an excellent choice for small landscapes and urban gardens. Beyond its ornamental foliage, Crimson Pointe™ also offers seasonal interest with its white to pale pink flowers that attract pollinators in early spring, followed by small edible fruit that birds enjoy. This cultivar is valued for its adaptability to a range of soil types and climates, as well as its resistance to common diseases affecting flowering plums. Recognized for its superior landscape performance and unique coloration, Crimson Pointe™ has earned accolades from horticultural societies for its combination of ornamental foliage and floral display, making it a standout selection for gardeners seeking both color and texture in their plantings.
