Malus ombrophila

Malus ombrophila is a rare wild crabapple species native to south-central China and Tibet, valued by botanical collectors for its ornamental spring flowers and adaptability to cool, humid climates. Plant in well-drained, fertile soil with partial sun exposure and water regularly during the growing season to establish a strong root system. This species is extremely rare in cultivation and is primarily found in botanical garden collections or specialist nurseries.
