Characteristics:
Obtained by INRA - Registered Plant.
This is a semi-spreading tree, reaching a height of 3 to 4m after 10 years. It keeps its shape, so therefore doesn't need pruning. Its leaves and branches are purple.
The purple-pink flowers blossom in April / May along the whole length of the branches, and the purple crab apples are ready in autumn.
COCCINELLA ® has also been chosen by breeders for its resistance to the major diseases such as fire blight, scab and mildew.

Uses:
Its ornamental foliage, its medium size and its ease of maintenance (little need for treatment or pruning), means that COCCINELLA ® is ideal for specimens, if grown as a standard, or in rows, in towns or small gardens; it can also be pollarded and used in mixed flowering hedges.
