Prunus incisa 'Little Twist', known as the Fuji cherry ‘Little Twist’, is a small, deciduous ornamental shrub highly valued for its compact habit and naturally twisted branches that give it a unique silhouette. This variety forms a dense bush with winding stems that provide year-round decorative interest, even in winter. In early spring, before the foliage fully emerges, the shrub is covered in an abundance of delicate pale pink flowers that brighten the garden and attract pollinators. Its fresh green foliage often turns golden yellow to orange in autumn, adding an extra seasonal touch. Thanks to its modest size and graphic habit, this cherry tree is ideal for small gardens, flowerbeds, rockeries, or cultivation in large containers.
