Prunus serrulata ‘Amanogawa’ has a narrow, upright growth habit. When young, the crown is distinctly columnar with upright branches; as the tree matures, the crown often sags slightly. The tree can grow to a height of 5 to 6 meters and a width of 1 to 2 meters.
These specific characteristics make this Japanese ornamental cherry tree ideal for gardens and green spaces. Thanks to its narrow crown shape, the tree is also suitable for narrow streets or areas where space is limited. The tree prefers well-drained soil that is not too wet,
In April, the tree blooms profusely with soft pink to nearly white flowers, 3–5 flowers per cluster. In a sunny location, the tree will produce more flowers. The fresh green leaves are oval to lance-shaped, with a finely serrated edge. In the fall, the tree displays an ornamental orange-yellow fall color.
It is a widely used cultivar in gardens.
