Malus floribunda
Japanese Flowering Crab Apple

Malus floribunda, commonly known as the Japanese Flowering Crabapple, is a highly ornamental deciduous tree admired for its spectacular seasonal display. In spring, the tree produces an abundance of deep pink to crimson buds, which gradually open into clusters of delicate pale pink and white flowers. The profusion of blossoms can create an impressive, almost cloud-like effect across the entire canopy, making it an outstanding feature tree.

After flowering, the tree develops small crabapple fruits, adding further visual interest as the seasons progress. Its attractive green foliage provides a lush summer appearance, while the compact fruits can remain on the branches into the cooler months. The tree develops a naturally graceful, spreading form with well-branched growth, giving it a beautiful silhouette even when it is not in flower.

Malus floribunda is well suited to home gardens, courtyards, lawns, pathways, cottage gardens and landscape plantings. It works particularly well as a standalone specimen where its abundant spring flowering can be fully appreciated. Its combination of colourful buds, beautiful blossoms, attractive foliage and ornamental fruit makes it a wonderful choice for gardeners looking to add year-round seasonal interest and a strong spring focal point to the landscape.
