Growth Habit

The Malus floribunda, also known as the Ornamental Apple, is a beautiful ornamental tree with a modest height. The crown is quite broad, with long, almost horizontal branches in later years.

 

Leaf Shape and Color

The oval, dark green leaf is 4 to 8 cm in size and has a serrated leaf margin.

 

Autumn Coloration

In the fall, this leaf changes to brilliant autumn colors in shades of orange and red.

 

Flowering Habit

In spring, the massive, loosely arranged flowers appear on the Malus floribunda. The flowers have a pink exterior but are white inside. The flower buds are dark red.

 

Ornamental Apples

In the fall, the approximately 1 cm-sized ornamental apples appear on the tree. They are greenish-yellow and later turn red.

 

Location

The Ornamental Apple prefers a moist, nutrient-rich soil.

 

How to plant the tree?

  1. Determine the final location of the tree and ensure it is free from cables, debris, old plants, and other obstacles that may hinder the tree's growth.
  2. Dig a planting hole that is twice the width of the root ball. Loosen the soil at the bottom of the planting hole and mix the excavated soil with (organic) garden soil or planting substrate.
  3. Adjust the planting hole to the height where the root ball fits and firmly press the soil.
  4. Fill the planting hole with water and wait for it to settle. Check if the root ball is sufficiently moist.
  5. Place the tree or plant in the planting hole. It is extremely important that the tree is not planted too deep, as this can cause root rot.
  6. Insert a tree stake or bamboo stake firmly into the ground on the side of the tree where the most wind comes from.
  7. Now, place the watering ring or create a mound of soil around the tree so that water can seep into the ground.
