Re: Prunus abhirtella "Higan"


Lynda,
I bet you could grow Prunus serrula (not to be confused with P. serrulata).
I fell in love with the bark on this one and attempted to grow it but neIN
was too cold for its hardiness.  I bet it would do well for you as AHS says
zones 6-8, whereas your P. mackii is zones 3-7.
Just take a look at the bark on this baby:
