Malus Zumi

A dense, spreading deciduous tree, Malus Zumi features red bugs that open up to abundant clusters of fragrant, soft pink blossoms that fade to white. Flowers appear in the spring before the new oval green leaves. Blooms give way to small, glossy red fruit, which persists into the winter if not eaten by birds.
