Quick Overview:

‘Autumnalis’ is a popular cultivar that is commonly sold in commerce. It typically grows to 20-35′ tall with a rounded, symmetrical crown. It is noted for producing a heavy bloom of semi-double pink flowers in spring with an additional but sparse bloom occurring in fall (hence the cultivar name). Leaves turn yellow in fall. Fruits are attractive to birds, but are not ornamentally significant.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Gardens Plant Finder)
