Bare Root Crab Apple Bundle 40/60cm x 100
(Malus sylvestris)

Your Crab Apple plant can reach an ultimate height of 5m and will look amazing if planted as part of a native hedge- but you can plant as a single specimen, too, of course.

• Growth rate: Average (20-40cm per year)
• Ideal height: 5m+ Tall
• Soil type: Normal, chalk, clay
• Exposure: Inland, exposed, coastal
• Aspect: Full sun, semi-shade
• Evergreen foliage? No

When your bare root Crab Apple arrives, place it straight into a bucket of water for around 2 hours, or more. The roots must be wet before planted. Ensure you also keep the plant moist during its development- do not let it become waterlogged, however.

Stick to pruning your plant around twice a year- first off in the cold days of Spring, then later in the early Winter. Make sure there are no chances of frosts arriving, and that the plant is dormant, too.
