Planting: Plant in a pot or border in a spot with full sun or partial shade. Your patio crabapple tree will benefit from being planted in moist, well-drained, soil-based compost (like John Innes No. 3). Plant one metre apart to allow for spreading.
Watering: Water regularly. Crabapple trees grown in pots require more watering than those grown in the open ground, especially throughout the growing season and during hot, dry spells.
Feeding: At the start of spring, give your patio crabapple tree a feed with a general-purpose fertiliser. Alternatively, apply a balanced liquid feed every fortnight throughout the growing season.
Pruning: To keep your patio crabapple tree's shape nice and neat, give it a light trim every winter, removing any overly long or congested branches to maintain a height of around 1.5m.
Pest & Disease: May need protection from aphids, woolly aphid, fruit tree red spider mite and caterpillars. It could also be affected by apple scab, apple canker and powdery mildews.
