The Pink Flowering Almond (Prunus glandulosa) is a delightful, deciduous shrub renowned for its vibrant display of blossoms. In early to mid-spring, this ornamental plant bursts into a profusion of delicate, double-pink flowers that cover its slender branches, creating a striking spectacle in any garden. The flowers, which appear before the foliage, attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, adding a lively charm to your outdoor space.

This compact shrub features dark green leaves that provide a lovely backdrop to its floral display. While it remains relatively small, with a height of 4-5 feet and a spread of 3-4 feet, the Pink Flowering Almond makes a bold statement when used as a specimen plant, in borders, or as part of a mixed hedge.

It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. With minimal maintenance requirements, this hardy plant is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a low-effort, high-impact addition to their landscape. Pruning after blooming helps maintain its shape and encourages dense growth for future flowering seasons.
