Malus Toringo 'Scarlett' is a particularly striking and ornamental deciduous tree, known for its distinctive, vibrant autumnal foliage and its stunning spring blossoms. Originating from East Asia, this variety of crabapple tree is admired for its impressive display of colors through different seasons. It boasts brilliant crimson and purple leaves in the autumn, which stand out significantly in any garden landscape.

In the spring, 'Scarlett' delights the senses with an abundance of fragrant, delicate pink blossoms that provide a breathtaking contrast to its emerging bronze foliage. The blossoms gradually give way to small, yellow-green apples, which can be a valuable food source for wildlife.

This tree has a compact, upright growth habit, making it a suitable choice for smaller gardens or confined spaces, where it can serve as a focal point. It is relatively hardy and adaptable to a range of soil types, and it has a moderate growth rate.

Malus Toringo 'Scarlett' does not only offer ornamental appeal through its changing colors but also contributes to biodiversity by attracting pollinators during its blooming period. This versatility makes it an appealing choice for those looking to combine aesthetic pleasure with ecological benefits in their gardens.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
