Description
Malus floribunda, commonly known as the Japanese Crabapple, is a moderately fast-growing ornamental tree with its origins in Japan. With long, gracefully arching branches and small, dark green leaves, it brings elegance and seasonal interest to any garden.
As spring arrives, the entire tree bursts into colour with bright pink buds that open into a profusion of small white to pale pink flowers. Shortly after flowering, yellow fruits flushed with red begin to appear. These fruits are not only edible but also attract birds, adding life and movement to the garden.
Interestingly, the Latin name floribunda means “flowering freely” or “many-flowering,” perfectly describing this tree’s abundant spring display. Because of its compact size, reaching approximately 3 x 2.5 metres, it’s an excellent choice for smaller gardens, courtyards, or decorative planting schemes. Furthermore, it responds well to pruning, making it easy to maintain a neat and tidy shape.
