Description
- A stunning ornamental tree, 'Yellow Siberian' produces a profusion of springtime blossoms, as snowy white in colour as the wintery landscape from which the tree takes its name.
- The flowers contrast brilliantly against a backdrop of lush green foliage, which creates a lovely canopy throughout the summer.
- This variety produces striking yellow crabapples, which offer a welcome jolt of colour in the autumn and winter months as conditions become greyer and darker.
- Fully hardy, low-maintenance and tolerant of a range of conditions, 'Yellow Siberian' is a great option for gardeners who want an easygoing, undemanding tree.
- Highly attractive to pollinating insects like bees and providing a valuable food source to birds through the fruits, planting this crabapple tree will undoubtedly bring more wildlife to your garden.

How to grow
How to grow
Good pest and disease resistance
A good variety for resistance to apple scab.
Water regularly while establishing
Throughout the tree's first growing season, water your tree regularly. Once established, it will only need additional watering during dry spells.
Full sun to partial shade
Best growth will occur in full sun (at least six hours of direct sunlight per day) but partial shade is tolerable.
Any fertile, well-drained soil
Grows best in moist (but well-drained) soil with good levels of fertility.
Feed in early spring
Crabapple trees benefit from an application of high-potassium fertiliser each year at the start of spring.

Best plants you will ever get online
I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.
Highly recommended all round
Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!
Satisfied customer
Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
A really good quality tree
A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
Exceptional quality
The quality of the plants was exceptional, unlike ones I have had before from local garden centres. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using you again.
Marvellous!
Marvellous service, great plants and fast delivery. Very useful information on how to care for the plants I bought. Easy to use website that makes it far too easy to overindulge in fabulous plants 😂🌱
