Malus ‘Coccinella’ is a deciduous ornamental tree with compact dimensions, highly appreciated for its elegance and ability to adapt to small spaces such as urban gardens and large terraces. It has a rounded, dense crown, making it ideal as a standalone element in flower beds or as a small street tree.
The leaves are oval-shaped with slightly serrated edges, bright and glossy green during the growing season. In autumn, they transform into warm yellow-orange hues before falling. The flowering occurs between April and May, when the tree is covered with numerous white or slightly pink flowers, delicately scented.
The fruits are small, resembling miniature apples, with a bright red color that is very decorative. They mature in autumn and often remain on the tree through the winter.
Malus ‘Coccinella’ is cold-resistant and can tolerate temperatures as low as -20°C, preferring sunny or slightly shaded exposures.
This variety requires regular watering, especially in the first few years after transplanting. Later, it can withstand short periods of drought. Maintenance includes winter pruning to remove dead branches, shape the canopy, and improve air circulation, thus reducing the risk of fungal diseases.
Malus ‘Coccinella’ is an ideal choice for those looking for an ornamental tree that combines ease of care, resilience, and high aesthetic value throughout all seasons of the year.
