Family Rosaceae

Malus 'Harvest Gold' is an ornamental apple tree with a rounded pyramidal habit, prized for its abundant white spring blossoms, followed by bright golden-yellow fruits that persist well into winter, adding structure and color to the cold season. Its lustrous green foliage, turning golden yellow in autumn, complements its multi-seasonal appeal. Very hardy and renowned for its high resistance to diseases such as scab, it adapts easily to well-drained soils in sunny locations and requires little maintenance. Its moderate growth and strong visual impact make it an excellent choice for solitary plantings, alignments, or naturalist gardens. 'Harvest Gold' combines ornamental value, persistent decorative fruiting, and remarkable tolerance, making it a reliable choice for Quebec's northern landscapes.
