Family Rosaceae

Malus 'Dreamweaver' is a unique weeping ornamental crabapple, remarkable for its gracefully drooping silhouette and intense pink spring blossoms, followed by small, decorative dark red fruits that persist until winter. Its natural weeping habit, rare among ornamental crabapples, creates a strong architectural effect, ideal as a standalone centerpiece in residential or commercial landscapes. The purplish foliage in spring turns dark green, then takes on orange to red hues in autumn, enhancing its four-season ornamental appeal. Very hardy and easy to maintain, it thrives in full sun, well-drained soil, and tolerates Quebec's harsh winters. 'Dreamweaver' combines weeping elegance, abundant flowering, and winter interest, making it a distinctive and durable choice for any northern garden.
