Description
A fast growing and well known crab from the late 1930s.
It can occasionally get clobbered by both apple scab and mildew in the summer so it is best to avoid if replacing other Malus that may carry these pathogens.
This lovely cultivar is just about the best of those with wine red flowers.
It is a small tree with a rounded crown well suited to gardens and parks.
The young copper-crimson foliage turns bronze-green at maturity while the rich purple flowers which are lightly fragrant turn pink as the season progresses.
Its fruits are small and blood red in colour.
If you live in an area prone to rabbits or deer then we recommend rabbit guards for these trees
