Malus Pom'Zai ('Courtabri' / Crab Apple Tree) - Half Standard
Ornamental apples grown for their blossom rather than for their fruit. Their flowering is one of the "magic moments" of springtime, and in autumn, often in winter clusters of brightly coloured crab apples hang from their boughs like tiny lanterns, creating a truly cheerful spectacle. They are hardy and easy to cultivate, In northern climates they are planted in full sun. The soil must be deep, cool, rich in humus and organic matter, whether moderately chalky or acid is not important. They can be grown and are available both as bushes and as trees. The bushes are very striking on their own on lawns, but can also be associated with other shrubs. The trees are used on their own on lawns, in groups in parks and for avenues. They attract a wide variety of fauna.
