prunus mume matsubara red

[junmilo]

Can anyone with this variety show me the leaf of the tree? I have one that's labeled "prunus mume matsubara red"..the leaf does not look like a prunus mume...color is off.

Thanks

I think @River's Edge and @Nybonsai12 both have that variety

Mine was promptly destroyed by animals after I put it in the ground, rivers Edge has some tho

I have 'Matsubara red' along with other cultivars of mume. Have a look at the first post on the thread below it shows the leaf shape and color. Mume leaf size can vary, but the shape and color is all the same.

Would you consider this as a prunus mume or hybrid variety?

What I can tell you is that none of my 20+ cultivars of mume have red edge leaves, nor red petioles or branches they are all green.

You can confirm what yours is when it flowers.

That is not prunus mume. Mume flowers don't have peduncles they bloom right on the branches. Also 'Matsubara red' is not pink, but closer to magenta. The fragrance in unmistakable.

My best guess would be your pic in some species of a flowering cherry. Any fruit produced would be the last key to determine what it is.

No fruit produced.

Looks just like my Prunus Serrulata (Kanzan Cherry)

 

[Lutonian]

looks like Prunus x blireana but hard to tell so many cultivars look similar

The differences are likely environmental.
