Japanese Crabapple

Japanese Crabapple (Malus floribunda)
This is one of the best crabapples for form and flower, reaching 15 to 25 feet in height and creating a broad, rounded, densely-branched canopy. It is quite disease resistant. The profusion of fragrant, 1 to 1.5-inch-diameter blooms begin as beautiful deep pink to red buds, eventually fading to a glistening white as they open. From August to October, the yellow and red fruits appear, providing a popular food for wildlife or they can be harvested to make a delicious jelly.

Japanese Crabapple Choices
Madonna is a double white flowered, compact and upright tree that blooms early until late in the season. It is disease resistant though it may have some problems with scab sometimes.
