VAT is not chargeable on these plants.
Excellent, small, columnar, deciduous crab apple ideal for a restricted space. In spring the foliage unfolds glossy mahogany-red, turning to dark green in summer then yellow in autumn. The pink flower buds open to a lush light-pink, fading to white, which stand out beautifully against the foliage. The flowers attract pollinating insects. In autumn the tree will be laden with bunches of bright red conical crab apples which are good for jelly making or left for birds and wildlife to feed on.
TREE 4m x 1.8m (13ft x 6ft) in 20 years, ultimate height 4m (13ft).

Br = Bare Root Plant
Bare-Root Plants
Bare-root plants are sold without a pot/soil around the roots. This is a more cost effective and environmentally friendly way of growing plants. To ensure the best plant health we do not store our plants in cold storage, but they are left in our field or plant beds until they are ready for packing or collection.
Items marked Br are bare rooted plants grown from cuttings and are typically 1-2 years old.
Availability
Bare rooted plants are only available when the plants are dormant (typically from late November to March).
If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.
