In flower, it is the princess of any garden or park, totally smothered in large rose-red cherry blossom. The effect is emphasised by its brevity \u2013 flowering lasts only for about a week.<\/p>\n<p>Sargent\u2019s cherry comes into leaf after flowering, with beautiful coppery foliage soon changing to green and finally to orange-red autumn shades. In winter the white-streaked chestnut bark is highly attractive amid a snow-covered landscape.<\/p>\n<p>This cherry grows naturally in Japan, Korea and the \u0420\u0443\u0441\u0441\u043a\u0438\u0439 Far East, for example on Sakhalin Island. As a mountain species it is noticeably hardier than the hybrid Japanese cherries so can be successfully grown in suitable sites as far north as central Finland. At Mustila there are specimens of several provenances which show slight differences in flowering times and habit.<\/p>\n<aside id=\"keywords\">\n<h2>Keywords<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ryhmittely\">Lehtipuut ja -pensaat<\/li>\n<li class=\"plants\"><a href=\"\" hreflang=\"und\">Cerasus sachalinensis<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"plants\"><a href=\"\" hreflang=\"und\">Prunus<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"plants\"><a href=\"\" hreflang=\"und\">Prunus sachalinensis<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"plants\"><a href=\"\" hreflang=\"und\">Prunus sargentii<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"location\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/alueet\/atsalearinne\" hreflang=\"fi\">Atsalearinne<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"location\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/alueet\/japani\" hreflang=\"fi\">Japani<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"location\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/alueet\/ketunmaki\" hreflang=\"fi\">Ketunm\u00e4ki<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7935,"template":"","alueet":[1012,1023,1053],"kasvilajit":[1095,1214],"class_list":["post-15455","kasvit","type-kasvit","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","alueet-atsalearinne-en","alueet-japani-en","alueet-ketunmki-en","kasvilajit-deciduous_trees_and_shrubs","kasvilajit-prunus"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kasvit\/15455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kasvit"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/kasvit"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7935"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"alueet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/alueet?post=15455"},{"taxonomy":"kasvilajit","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kasvilajit?post=15455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
