Is anyone familiar with........

[Jester]

the following species of Prunus? Do you know the botanical name? I am at my wits end trying to get an answer. No-one in Australia seems to know. Just to help, I "think" it is a cultivar of Prunus Elvins and that's the best that I can do. As you can see, the flowers are quite small by Prunus standards. Hope someone can help. I am after the botanical and common name. Having a lot of trouble getting an answer back here in Australia.

Regards

John

It's a prunus, probably a cherry. Specific cultivar really doesn't matter bonsaiwise. It should respond to the overall care recommended for that species. Dwarf cultivars tend to be very slow growers however.

This one is...

Definitely not a slow grower..
