Malus 'Professor Sprenger' – Malus 'Professor Sprenger'

View prices and availability
This small tree reaches a height of 5 - 6 m. It forms a broad, pyramidal, rounded crown and is very winter-hardy. The oval to elongated leaves are green and turn golden yellow in the autumn. Strongly scented white flowers emerge from the dark pink flower buds. The flowers are single and approx. 4.5 cm in diameter. The ovoid orange-yellow to deep orange fruits remain on the tree until late December. They are approximately 1.5 cm in diameter. Can be easily used in streets because it is resistant to hard surfaces. Prefers a somewhat drier richer soil. 'Professor Sprenger' is slightly sensitive to scab and sensitive to the woolly aphid. It stands up badly to sea wind. Winter hardiness zone: 4
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
