The Purple Leaf Sand Cherry, also known as the dwarf red-leaf plum, is a hardy shrub that brings bold color to the landscape all season long. Smaller in size than traditional purple leaf plums, it makes a great alternative for compact spaces. In early spring, it greets the season with fragrant, pale pink-white blossoms, followed by foliage that starts out bright red before deepening into rich reddish-purple through summer. By fall, the leaves mature to a striking maroon, creating a stunning finish to the growing season. This ornamental shrub also produces small purple fruits that attract and feed songbirds. Whether planted on its own or incorporated into a hedge, border, or privacy screen, it adds eye-catching beauty and versatility to any yard. Mature Height 6-10' & 5-8' Wide
