Weeping Red Jade Crabapple
Malus 'Red Jade'

Height: 4-5 m

Width: 4-5 m

Zone: 4

Exposure: Full sun

Upright weeping growth habit with outward pendulous branches.  Pale pink buds open to single white flower before the leaves emerge in the Spring.  Small, persistent, bright red crabapples are the star of the show in the Fall.  Leaves are green in the Summer, turning yellow in the Fall.

As a weeping cultivar, it adds unusual character to a landscape. Use as a specimen, in small groups or mixed with other cultivars. Crabapples have visual appeal in the spring with their abundance of showy flowers. Added appeal lies in the fall and winter with their colourful fruit that is attractive to birds.
