Malus Red Sentinel Details

Malus Red Sentinel is a variety of Crabapple grown for its colourful fruits and flowers. Rose-coloured flower buds open into showy, single, white blossoms in spring just as the foliage emerges. The fragrant flowers result in large crops of small, cherry-like, red fruit which is often made into Crabapple jelly and is loved by birds. The glossy leaves emerge green in spring, age to a darker green, then develop yellow tones in autumn before falling. It typically grows to 4 m tall and 3 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun on a fertile, well-drained site, protected from wind. It is tolerant of cool climates and frost, though late frosts in spring can reduce yields. Malus Red Sentinel is commonly grown as a specimen, maintained in a courtyard garden, included in a cottage garden, or used for avenue planting. This is a popular and showy plant that will impress.
