Malus ‘Gorgeous’
Crab Apple
Location
The Sunken Garden
Description:
A small rounded crab apple tree lives up to its name. In spring it produces a mass of scented white blossom, opening from pink buds. This is followed by crimson fruits that are the most perfect miniature apples, that hold well into November and are ideal for making a tangy, pink jelly. The dark green foliage is tinted orange-yellow in autumn.
Site and Care:
Plant in full sun or slightly shaded sites in moderately fertile soil of any type.
