CRAB, Flame. (Minnesota No. G35). This is primarily 
an ornamental crab but the fruits, though small, 
make an excellent red jelly. The flowers are similar 
to other crabs but are borne in great profusion. The 
tree is compact in growth and of medium size, suit¬ 
able for lawn planting. The fruits are a brilliant 
red and hang tenaciously to the trees until mid¬ 
winter, months after the leaves have fallen. The 
effect is a mass of flaming red color from August 
until November. Trees 5 to 6 feet high often have 
250 or more brilliant red colored crabs. The fruit 
during December and January is attractive to winter 
birds. As an ornamental tree in the fall it rivals 
all other trees with its attractive bright red fruit. 
Among the ornamental trees in our nursery last fall 
this ornamental crab attracted by far the most 
attention. See cut page 13.
