The Flowering Almond shrub (Prunus glandulosa) is a popular, tough deciduous shrub known for its stunning display of fragrant, double pink (or white) blossoms in early spring on bare branches, resembling cherry blossoms and attracting pollinators. Growing 3-5 feet tall, it's great for small gardens, borders, or containers, offers lush green foliage, and needs pruning right after flowering to encourage next year's blooms. It's drought-tolerant once established and is a hardy plant for zones as cold as Zone 4.
