Description

Packed with colourful features, Malus Royal Raindrops provides interest all year round. In spring, dark pink blossom covers the tree and creates an impressive display. This gives way to glossy dark purple, cutleaf foliage. In late summer, red crab apples make an appearance. These can last into winter, adorning the bare branches and providing food for birds.

With a gently upright habit, Malus Royal Raindrops will grow to a height and spread of 5 x 3.5 metres in 20 years. Coping with inland wind exposure, this purple-leaved Crab Apple tree also can tolerate some drought once established. An easy to care for tree that exhibits good disease resistance and is happy in full sun to partial shade.

AKA Malus 'Jfskw5'

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Crab Apple trees require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.

You can harvest culinary Crab Apples in early autumn or leave them for birds to enjoy. The trees should be pruned in winter but do not require hard pruning. Avoid trimming the tips of branches. Simply remove any dead or damaged branches and shoots at the base of the tree i.e. suckers and water sprouts.
