Malus 'John Downie'
Crab apple
One of the crab apples grown as much for fruit as for flower: white blossom gives way to red-orange fruit. The deciduous crown is upright when young and spreads with age. It works well as a garden tree, and the fruit is traditionally used for jelly.

About sizes
CLT is a container volume in litres, VRL the same in a decorative red container. M is a field-grown plant lifted with its root ball, MGR the same grown in isolation and wire-balled. RN is bare root, available in the dormant season. T is a full standard and POT a planter. Heights are given as a range in centimetres; trunk girth is the circumference measured at one metre. A larger container is not always dearer: a trained or grafted form of the same volume costs more than a bush, and the form is named on the row.
