Notes

'Snowcloud' crabapple (Malus 'Snowcloud') is a tree for pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. White flowers open from early to late spring and draw butterflies, bees, and birds. The upright tree turns yellow in fall and tolerates drought. Its upright shape suits a lawn or a garden corner with room overhead.

Pairs well with American yellowwood, White trillium, and Gladiator ornamental onion.
