Description
- A profusion of fragrant, single, pale pink blossom emerging from carmine-pink buds in mid-spring
- The fruits of this crabapple are edible and can be used to make jellies and jams
- The crab apples may appear until winter (if birds won’t beat you to them) adding another season of interest
- The serrate, dark-green leaves will turn to yellow comes fall
- Would make a fantastic specimen tree and would need space to show off its full glory
- Proudly holds the RHS Award of Golden Merit
- Grows to 4mx4.5m
- Easy to maintain and hardy tree, thriving in all moist and well-drained soils
- Native to Japan
- Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single-use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better-shaped tree. This can stop the tree from becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
