The Vadimovka apple tree is not high, about 2.4 meters - this is the maximum height that it can reach. The crown forms slowly and forms an oval from the branches. There is a small distance between the branches, because the foliage is of medium density. At the age of 10-12 years, the tree grows and loses its crown shape.

The buds that are located on the tree are very large, slightly elongated and rounded at the edges. They cling to the escape. The leaves are emerald in color with a burgundy hue. They resemble an egg in shape with a slightly pointed end. On the surface of the entire leaf, there are white veins, as well as small wrinkles, due to which the leaf shrinks and lifts the edges up. The leaf petioles are medium in size, thick; at the end of the season, the petiole weakens, so the leaves quickly fall off.
