Here’s a NorthWest look, a project we did in Vancouver, British Columbia just prior to the World’s Fair there. These are all Shirotae Cherries, gorgeous when in bloom and we just barely missed it, picture-wise. Nevertheless, I love the look of the blossoms on the ground. We planted them densely, making a literal grove out of them. Believe it or not, there is a basement parking lot under this stand of trees.

Thanks, Anat. Actually, no fruits, lol. These were strictly ornamental cherry trees. I know, that seems disappointing to some but, for a commercial project, at an apartment building such as this, cherries or almost any fruit, can be more of a pain than a benefit. Who gets them and who cleans them, lol, is the perennial question.
