Read detailed description :

Moderate growth. Very floriferous. Its vegetation, naturally erect and well ramified, will form naturally, with limited help. Bunches of lovely white flowers in April-May. Little orange apples turning to red will brighten your gardens from September to January and attract birds. In just a few years it will grow from a lovely erect shrub into a small pyramidal tree. Leaves are dark green in summer turning to a bright yellow in autumn.
