Prunus 'Snofozam' [SNOW FOUNTAINS] 4/2022 weeping higan cherry D0- (White Fountain) weeping higan cherry, Mature plant size: 10x8ft., white, USDA Hardiness Zone 5, Michigan Bloom Month 4a, In Garden Bed D0 for 25.0 YEARS (Builders). Planted in 1997.
Missouri Botanical Garden: 'Snofozam', sold under the trade name of SNOW FOUNTAINS, is a slow-growing, weeping, ornamental cherry that is sold in a variety of forms: (1) a compact, naturally weeping tree (most other weeping cherries are topgrafted) that typically grows 8-15' tall, or (2) a compact tree topgrafted at 6' or (3) a ground cover. As a weeping tree, its cascading branches dip all the way to the ground, giving the appearance of a white or snow fountain when covered with pure white flowers in early spring. Flowers give way to small, sparse, black, inedible fruits. Dark green leaves (to 3 1/4" long) turn attractive shades of gold and orange in autumn. This cultivar is known by several different names, including 'Snofozam', 'White Fountain' and 'Snow Fountains'.
