Malus 'Evereste'

A very popular crab apple that is very disease resistant. The unusually large soft pink-white flowers open from red buds and are followed by heavy crops of small red flushed orange-yellow fruits that persist well into December and can be used for making crab apple jelly. The tree has a compact conical habit making it an ideal choice for small gardens. The dark green foliage turns yellow-orange in the autumn.

Pollination: Self-fertile. Universal Pollinator.

Height x spread in 10 years: up to 3m (10ft).

Pre-Order for delivery by end of December 2025.

Crab apples (Malus) are related to the common apple and are grown for their lavish display of spring flowers and edible fruits which can be made into jelly. They are also very useful pollinators as they have a long flowering period and are often interplanted in commercial apple orchards to assist with pollination. Crab apples make ideal specimen trees and are suitable for smaller gardens.

Bare root trees are only available when they are fully dormant (usually from late November/December until late March). Where we quote a height on despatch, this includes the root system.

Don't forget to include tree stakes and ties on your order. All young fruit trees require staking and for better establishment we strongly advise using Rootgrow when planting (as recommended in RHS planting guidelines).

My Malus Evereste did get a bit of blight, something to do with the weather I'm sure. I cut some leaves from the local willow trees and chopped them up a bit to make a mulch for my apple tree. it is fine now. It's the salicylic acid (aspirin) in the willow that does the trick. I now put willow leaves on prophylactically in the spring and late summer and my apple looks very healthy.
