(Prunus glandulosa 'Rosea Plena')
The good news is - this is one of the best ornamental flowering shrubs. The bad news - it will never give you almonds. It could be questioned why it is even called an almond. So let's just focus on the flowers and they certainly are worthy of note. The upright, vase shaped bush is covered with vibrant pink, double 13mm (½") blossoms accented by shiny green foliage. Flowering Almond responds well to hard pruning for more blooms. It is also decidedly drought tolerant. Mature size - 1.5 (5') tall × 1m (3-4') wide.
