MALUS PURPLE PRINCE

MALUS PURPLE PRINCE
Grower Notes:

The Purple Prince Crabapple is a small, fast-growing, rounded deciduous tree with upward spreading branches. It is such a prolific bloomer! It features bright red buds that open to fragrant rose-red, single flowers in mid spring. Its flowers are followed by abundant, maroon fruit that persist into winter. Birds and wildlife love them and they make a fine jelly. The foliage is ovate leaves that emerge purple-bronze in spring and later turn green through summer followed by warms yellows in fall.

The Purple Prince has good disease resistance and enjoys full sun in rich, moist, well-drained soils.
