Apple blossoms are fragrant. The majority of apple tree (Malus) blossoms begin as pink buds and bloom as white flowers. A handful of cultivars, however, have flowers that retain some or all of their pink hues past the bud stage.All apple trees perform best when they receive full sun exposure and have well-drained soil with a pH level of 5 to 7.ala. The apple tree cultivar Gala is from New Zealand and produces light-pink flowers that turn into orange and red fruits. A cross between Kidd's Orange Red and Golden Delicious, Gala has rich and flavorful apples that are candidates for juicing.
1 The main Cotinus Coggygria varieties are: 2  Cotinus 'Daydream' - pinkish tan flowers, green foliage, up to 12 ft. 3  tall and wide (3.6 m). 4  Cotinus 'Golden Spirit' - pale pink flowers, lime-gold foliage maturing to chartreuse in summer and turning red, orange and gold in fall. Small and insignificant, the flowers are born on clusters (panicles) whose hairs, pink or purple, give an effect of fluffy clouds. 2  The purple-leaved varieties of Cotinus Coggygria are spectacular in summer when they add a strong accent color to the landscape.
