Rosaceae
Malus 'Louisa' is a highly elegant weeping ornamental apple tree, prized for its graceful, cascading habit and abundant spring bloom of soft pink flowers that completely cover its arching branches. It then produces decorative small, golden-yellow to orange-pink fruits that persist into winter, providing an attractive food source for birds. Its glossy green foliage, turning golden yellow in autumn, further enhances its seasonal appeal. Perfect as a specimen plant, alongside a pond, or as a focal point in a refined landscape design, 'Louisa' is very hardy, disease-resistant, and easy to grow in full sun in well-drained soil. This cultivar combines a sculptural form, delicate blossoms, and winter interest, making it a highly decorative choice for residential gardens in Quebec.
