Malus 'Pink Perfection'

crab apple 'Pink Perfection'

Product Image
A very pretty crab apple, that makes an excellent addition to smaller gardens. In spring, the branches are clothed in a mass of large fragrant double pink flowers just as the new leaves start to appear, making this a really special addition to the garden. Ideal for a small garden or as a feature in a spring border underplanted with bulbs. Also makes a good specimen planted in a large patio pot.

How to care for Malus Pink Perfection:

When planting your flowering crab, prepare a hole up to three times the diameter of its root system. Fork over the base of the pit in readiness, incorporating plenty of organic matter into the backfill and planting hole. Avoiding frozen and waterlogged soil, trees should be planted out as they arrive. If you've ordered a bare root tree, soak the roots in a bucket of water for half an hour prior to planting, or if this is not possible, they can be heeled in temporarily, covering their roots with soil, or potted up. Choose a sheltered spot to protect emerging blossom. Remove dead, diseased and crossing branches while the tree is dormant during the winter months.
