Malus Royal Beauty
Weeping Crab Apple Tree
Common Name: Weeping Crab Apple TreeLatin Name: Malus 'Royal Beauty'Soil: Fertile, well-drained soilPosition: Full sun or partial shadeFlowering period/colour: May/ Deep pinkHardiness: Fully hardyHeight and spread in 20 years: 2.5m x 2.5mSpecial features: Dark red fruits in the autumn. Good for small gardens.The Malus 'Royal Beauty' is the perfect choice for a tree that has an ever-changing, year round interest. The leaves emerge as a bronzed red colour and turn purple-red in summer before a final burst of bronzed yellow in the autumn. A further interest is added in spring with the masses of deep pink flowers that bloom in April/ May. The final anual display comes in autumn with the dark red crab apples; these hold well into winter and are great for attracting birds. This tree has a weeping habit and is ideal for smaller gardens.
Prunus Kiku
Shidare Zakura
Prunus 'Kiku-Shidare Zakura' is a compact and highly attractive tree. The ‘Cheals Weeping’ is perfect for a small garden and it boasts a profuse display of double pink flowers. This is ideal for restricted spaces as it is one of the smallest flowering cherry trees available: you can even keep it in a large pot, if you don’t have the room to plant it. In spring, this outstanding tree bursts to life: new foliage shoots through and the leaves are a shimmering bronze colour. At the same time, the ‘Cheals Weeping’ puts on a stunning floral display. The spring flowers are rose-pink with a double petal formation and they cover the tree. In fact, the pendulous branches become difficult to see as they are often masked in a blanket of vivid flowers during this season. As the leaves mature, they turn deep green and hold their colour over summer. Come autumn, the tree produces an exuberantly colourful display of autumnal orange and bronze before the leaves fall. The structure of this tree gives winter interest as the pendulous branches gracefully arch downwards and they look beautiful when topped with snow. An ideal choice for year-round interest. This flowering cherry tree is so wonderfully compact that it is suitable for planting in a range of situations: when planted in pairs, the Kiku Shidare Zakura’ looks great on either side of a path and it also makes a worthy lawn specimen. You can even plant this tree in a large pot and sit it on a sunny patio. With this being a small tree, it also makes a great gift. A best seller of ours, and for good reason, too.
