Flowering Trees
Under Construction
Crabapples (Malus) - Crabapples
bloom in early spring about the same time as dogwood trees. Most commonly
used varieties have small berries (apples) that can persist into winter for
added interest. The berries are usually small enough to be eaten by birds
and are usually not a problem with fruit dropping on lawns. Older
varieties had problems with various leaf diseases and often dropped their leaves
before the end of the summer. The leaves of newer varieties are resistant
to these diseases and are greatly preferred over older varieties. Click
here for information on disease resistance of specific varieties.
Listed below are short descriptions of usually available varieties and links to
pictures on other sites.
(Available May 2004 (7ft. to 10-ft.): Golden Raindrops, Harvest Gold, Red Jewel, Snowdrift, Adams, Cardinal, Prairifire, and Sentinel. All varieties below should be available in fall
