They seem to be a little hard to track down at least in Melbourne. I managed to get a local bonsai nursery to part with one a few years back and it's in the ground now, they have beautiful flowers and a little earlier to flower than flowering plum (ume) and flowering cherry

Nice to see. I would be wary about leaving the fruit on the tree too long as it could deprive the plant of energy.
