'Momo Shidare' is a uniquely beautiful selection of the Japanese Snowbell. This unusual weeping form is perfectly suited to smaller spaces, or for inclusion in shrub beds and borders. Just picture a weeping tree, festooned with clouds of fragrant pink bells hanging below the branches. Eventual height depends on how high you wish to stake it, before freeing the tree to weep.
