Malus ‘Direktor Moerland’

The Malus Moerlandsii Crabapple  is also known as Direktor Moerland.

Being a disease resistant crabapple – it was bred to resist canker and mildew, which can be problematic for some of the other red or purple leaved crabapple varieties.

The young leaves are a fantastic crimson-purple, deepening to a rich green as they develop. The wine pink flowers are abundant and create a lovely layered colour effect with the foliage.. It has a rich autumn display and when the leaves have all fallen, the small, purplish fruit will continue to adorn the branches for several months.

One of the best all rounders for a combination of foliage, flower and fruit.

The planting season for bare-rooted trees and shrubs is generally between the months of November – March
