Royal Raindrops Crabapple
Malus 'Royal Raindrops' is an ornamental crabapple tree with exceptionally deep purple foliage, combining abundant magenta-pink blossoms in spring with persistent fruiting of small, highly decorative dark red fruits. Its rounded to slightly spreading habit and well-structured silhouette make it an excellent choice for a specimen planting, a decorative bed, or a structural alignment. Its finely cut foliage remains purple throughout the season, turning coppery red in autumn, with a remarkable luminous effect. Highly resistant to scab, hardy, and undemanding, 'Royal Raindrops' thrives in full sun in well-drained soil. It stands out for its long season of ornamental interest, its marked spring impact, and its impeccable performance in all conditions, making it an easy tree to integrate and maintain.
