The Flowering Crab Apples 
(Maluses) 
HARLAN P. KELSEY, Salem, Massachusetts 
(Owner Boxford Nursery, East Boxford, Mass.) 
Malus floribunda 
Professor Sargent, Director of the Arnold Arboretum, says: 
"This is one of the handsomest and most satisfactory of all flower- 
ing trees for this climate; it blooms every year without fail. The 
bright pink flower-buds arc very beautiful: and the masses of small 
flowers, which completely cover the branches, are at first pink and 
then gradually become white." Fruit hangs until late spring, fur- 
nishing fine winter food for birds. (See prices on page 4.)
