Malus Evereste is a medium-sized deciduous ornamental tree, native to the temperate regions of Asia

It reaches a height between 4 and 7 meters, developing a broad and irregular crown that gives it an elegant, natural appearance. Its deciduous leaves are oval-shaped, about 5-8 cm long, and are a vibrant green during the growing season, turning yellow-orange in the fall before shedding.

Its most appreciated feature is the spring bloom, which occurs between April and May. During this time, the tree is covered with abundant and spectacular white or slightly pink flowers, adding great ornamental value. Later, in autumn, Malus Evereste produces small red fruits, resembling miniature apples, which remain on the tree until late winter.

This species is particularly resilient: it withstands cold temperatures down to -20°C or lower, making it suitable for temperate climates with harsh winters.

The growth of Malus evereste is medium-slow: in the first few years, it can grow about 20-40 cm per year, stabilizing with age and reaching its final height. The canopy, initially dense, gradually becomes more open and branched over time. The root system is deep and taprooted, ensuring stability and good absorption capacity in various types of soil.

Regarding maintenance, this plant requires regular watering, especially in the first 2-3 years after planting, to promote good establishment. After that, it tolerates moderate periods of drought. Ideal for parks and gardens.
