Crab Apples. 



Most of the varieties of crab apples have made excellent growth. The variety 

 Whitney, planted in 1890, made a strong growth for a few years, fruited well but has 

 since been gradually dying out. Those planted in 1893 have made only fair growth. 



This collection consists of 31 trees of ten varieties as shown in the following table.
