A lovely small, oval-headed tree with dark green leaflets that turn a deep purple then a fiery orange in autumn. 'Eastern Promise' bears delightful clusters of coral pink berries in dense clusters, which weigh down the branches with bird-friendly fruit. An outstanding tree which can tolerate a wide range of soils and conditions.


  • Garden care:
    Requires minimal pruning. Remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter. When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly.
    • Humans/Pets: Fruit are ornamental - not to be eaten
