Malus 'Gorgeous' is a well-loved decorative crabapple tree cherished for its abundant and vibrant pink blossoms that appear in spring. This deciduous tree's stunning springtime display is a spectacle, as the blooms densely populate the branches, offering a breathtaking view and attracting various pollinators, enhancing local biodiversity. The lavish blossoms eventually give way to glossy, small, red fruit, which persist well into winter, providing a continuous supply of food for birds and wildlife, thus contributing to the ecological balance of the garden landscape.

This variety of crabapple stands out for its overall robustness and resilience, often proving to be disease-resistant, making it a favorable choice among garden enthusiasts and landscape designers. The lush green foliage that accompanies the flowers and fruit adds a contrasting backdrop, enriching the visual appeal of the tree throughout the various seasons.

Malus 'Gorgeous' generally achieves a moderate height and spread, making it suitable for gardens of various sizes, including smaller urban gardens. Its ability to adapt to different soil types and conditions contributes to its popularity. The striking aesthetic value and ecological benefits of Malus 'Gorgeous' make it a quintessential element for creating a lively and colorful landscape, particularly in regions that experience a prominent change in seasons.

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.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
