Description of the plant:
Malus Perpetu® is another crab apple. This variety offers snow-white flowers, very similar to those you can see on apple trees. They open from pink buds and their number is very high every year. Deciduous leaves are green, ovate, mid-sized. The best attraction is the fruit – many tiny apples of vivid golden yellow colour with orange and red highlights mature in September. They are not edible for humans but are very popular with singing birds so have one tree in the garden and be sure to hear their songs every spring. It is soil tolerant and absolutely hardy.
