Malus 'Weepcanzam'(WEEPING CANDIED APPLE®)
Common Name: Weeping Candied Apple Crabapple
Malus ‘Weepcanzam’ Weeping Candied Apple� is a deciduous flowering crabapple tree with a graceful weeping habit, reddish-pink buds that open to true pink flowers, dark green glossy foliage with reddish new growth, and small cherry-red fruit that persists into fall and winter. Its fountain-like branching makes it one of the stronger small weeping crabapples for specimen use. Type: Deciduous flowering tree Mature Size: 10–15' W x 10–15' H USDA Zones: 4a–8b Form: Weeping, arching, fountain-like Light: Full sun Soil / Water: Well-drained soil; moderate water Bloom Time / Length: Spring Wildlife: Pollinators, birds Features & Landscape Uses: Excellent as a specimen tree, patio accent, or focal point in smaller landscapes where the pendulous branching can be appreciated. The persistent red fruit adds strong fall and winter interest, and the smaller size makes it useful where a full-size crabapple would be too wide. Care: Plant in full sun with good air circulation and well-drained soil. Water regularly while establishing, then during dry spells as needed. Prune mainly to maintain structure and remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This cultivar is generally noted for strong disease resistance, though fire blight resistance is weaker than its resistance to scab, rust, and mildew.
