Malus Evereste Standard Trees
Evereste crab apple trees are so floriferous that you can hardly see the branches under all the blossom. The dark pink buds open into mostly white blooms, with some clusters keeping a bit of a pink tinge. These mature into a big crop of small, yellow-orange fruit that are perfect for crab apple jelly, apple sauce or for pressing into a mixed cider brew. The glossy green leaves turn rich shades of gold in the autumn.
Most crab apples make excellent pollinators in an apple orchard. They are tidy upright plants that become semi-weeping under the weight of their crop of crabs; it's good to remove some when your trees are new to help them establish.
This is a very tough tree that will do well beside a road in the city. Crab apples perform well on poor soil if you improve it first with compost, then mulch. They like clay on sites that are well drained.
She can reach a height of about 6 metres.

How Standard Trees are Measured:
All the plants in the ornamental trees section are graded as standards, which means that they are measured by their girth in centimetres 1 metre above ground level (basically, their trunk's waist measurement). They aren't measured by their height, which will vary. So, a 6/8 standard has a trunk with a circumference of 6-8 centimetres and an 8/10 standard has a trunk 8-10 centimetres around. This measurement makes no difference to the tree's final height.
Standard trees are 2 - 3.5 metres tall (on average) when they arrive; they are the most mature trees that you can buy from us. We cannot tell you precisely how tall your trees will be before we deliver them.
