Malus x ‘Jeflite’
Zone: 2
Size: 25’ H x 15’ W
Large, white, fragrant flowers perfume the air when ‘Starlite®’ explodes into bloom. Unlike its fruitless predecessor ‘Spring Snow’, this Crabapple resists scab; holding its leaves all summer. Fall foliage turns into lovely gold and small, shiny, red fruits contrast beautifully with their backdrop. Birds clean them up quickly after a good chill softens and sweetens them. Dense, upright, and easy to work around, ‘Starlite®’ is an easy tree to incorporate. Superior cold hardiness makes it a great option for up at the cabin. Tolerance of varying pH levels, soil types and urban conditions helps it fit in almost anywhere!
