Overview

This gorgeous crab apple looks amazing in spring, when it's laden with large clusters of blush-white, nectar-rich flowers. Then, in late summer and autumn, the display kicks off again as the golden-yellow fruits crowd along the stems. Harvest these to make jellies and jams - or leave them on the tree and watch the comings and goings of a wide range of wildlife that will come for a snack. A wonderfully showy addition to the ornamental garden, it's also a valuable addition to the allotment or kitchen garden where it can be used as a pollinating partner for both cooking or eating apples.

Care guide

Bare-root plants should be planted out as soon as they arrive. If this is not possible, they can be heeled in temporarily (covering their roots with soil) or potted up. Before planting, soak the rootball in a bucket of water for half an hour and make sure to incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole. Stake firmly in exposed positions. Remove dead, diseased and crossing branches while the tree is dormant.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Bare root plants are either wrapped in plastic bags or waxed paper where possible and then placed into a cardboard box.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
