Below the sport of double blossoms on our single flowered cherry tree.
Having said that, I reckon it was a double flowered tree to start with, which in part reverted back to singles.
It was planted before my time here. The tree must be at least 40 years old. These prunus trees are not long-lived. They wither away after about 40 years, and ours is definitely in the withering stage, sadly.
