Botanical name'Snowdrift' penalty

Malus 'Snowdrift' is an ornamental apple tree with abundant flowering and a rounded habit, which stands out in spring with a profusion of pink buds opening into dazzling white flowers, creating a spectacular floral snow effect. It then produces small reddish-orange fruits, very persistent and decorative until winter, which attract birds and add visual interest in the cold season. Its dark green foliage, turning golden yellow in autumn, extends its appeal. Very hardy, disease-resistant, and easy to maintain, 'Snowdrift' is ideal for planting as a specimen tree, in an alignment, or integrated into a bed. It prefers a sunny exposure and well-drained soil, and is distinguished by its balanced silhouette, luminous bloom, and winter fruiting, for a lasting decorative effect.
