Ideal for small gardens, Malus 'Evereste' (Crabapple) is a charming deciduous tree with several seasons of interest. Opening from rich red buds, masses of sweetly fragrant, large, cup-shaped, white blossoms, 2 in. across (5 cm), appear in late spring, just as the foliage is unfolding. The blooms are followed by abundant clusters of cherry-like, red-blushed, orange-yellow fruit, 1 in. wide (2.5 cm), which persist well into winter. The foliage of more or less lobed leaves emerges dark green in spring and remains so until fall when it turns orange and yellow shades.

Among the most disease-resistant Crabapples, 'Evereste' is also pollution resistant, making it perfect for urban gardens.

  • Recipient of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society.
  • Grows with a broadly conical habit up to 20 ft. tall and wide (6 m).
  • A full sun lover, this tree is easily grown in moderately fertile, well-drained soils. Once established, it is drought tolerant.
  • Perfect as a specimen plant, in city gardens or cottage gardens.
  • Require only minimal pruning in late winter or spring, to remove damaged, diseased or misplaced growth.
  • Propagate by chip budding in late summer. Grafting can be carried out in midwinter.
