Malus Tschonoskii - Pillar Apple-As its name suggests this is an erect conical tree. It grows strongly upwards but seldom exceeds 12 metres in height. An ideal arboretum, park, garden or avenue tree where space is limited. It was discovered near Mount Fujiyana in Japan between 1892 and 1897. Buds open silvery and produce firm grey downy leaves. Some leaves are lobed, an unusual feature in an apple. Very pleasant small and white pink tipped flowers which yield small glossy yellow and red fruit but not in quantities to litter pavements or lawns.
Not only is this a compact upright tree, it produces a good display of autumn colours from bright yellow, scarlet and deep red making this tree on of the very best in autumn. Would look good as a specimen in a small garden
