Bursts into a stunning display of vibrant red-purple blossom each spring.
Enjoy a captivating, year-round show of colour, from purple-bronze spring leaves to rich autumn golds.
Develops small, dark purple crab apples in autumn, providing winter interest.
The fruits are a feast for garden birds, though not for human consumption.
A perfect, compact feature tree for lawns, wildlife gardens, or even large containers.
An excellent pollinator for early-season apple trees.
Thrives in urban settings thanks to its pollution-resistant nature.
