Malus baccata 'Street Parade' – Flowering Crab

View prices and availability
Small tree with a fairly narrow crown, which makes it particularly popular as a street tree. The twigs and bark are hairless and dark brown. The leaves emerge light green but turn olive green in the summer. Young leaves carry light hairs on the underside. Malus baccata starts to flower as early as late April. The flowers, almost 5 cm in size, grow in bundles of 4 to 8 together. In the bud the flowers are pink but they turn bright white when open. The fairly hard fruits are glossy purple-red to brownish-purple. 'Street Parade' stands up exceptionally well to understory and grows best on nutritious, preferably not too dry soils. The tree is mildew-free and only slightly sensitive to scab. Allowing a solitary planted shrub to grow into a multi-trunked tree can produce an attractive effect.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from noiembrie 2024.
