Highlights

  • Smothered in pink-tinged white flowers in May–June that attract bees and make the tree an excellent pollinator and pollination partner.
  • Produces abundant clusters of golden-yellow fruit in autumn that persist into winter; supplied as bare-root on MM106 rootstock and suitable for jelly or ornamental display.

Description

Marshalls Garden Malus 'Golden Hornet' is a compact, prolific crab apple with pink-tinged white blossoms in late spring and clusters of golden-yellow fruit that often remain into winter. Bees are attracted to the flowers, and the tree provides valuable pollination for other apple varieties. With a broad, spreading crown it works well as a specimen tree in small gardens, growing to approximately 4–5 m on MM106 rootstock and delivered as bare-root specimens. Plant in a sunny spot with moist, well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil; space 3–4 m apart, water well after planting, mulch to retain moisture, and prune in late winter or early spring. Fruit can be harvested for preserves or left for ornamental interest.

Product Care InstructionsChoose a sunny spot with well-drained, fertile soil. Plant at the same depth as it was in the pot, spacing trees 3-4m (10-13ft) apart. Water deeply after planting and mulch around the base to retain moisture. Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or crowded branches. To grow crab apple trees, select a sunny location with rich, well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and plant the tree at its original depth, ensuring good root contact with the soil. Space trees 3-4m apart for healthy growth. Water well after planting and apply mulch around the base to keep moisture in and weeds out. In late winter or early spring, prune to remove dead or overcrowded branches. Fertilise in early spring to support blossoms and fruiting, and water during dry periods, especially in the first few years.
