CRAB, Flame. (Minnesota No. (535). 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, suitable 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 at¬ 
tractive 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.

CRAB, Hopa. The red new foliage and the beautiful 
single red blossoms which completely cover the tree 
in the early spring make this tree the most attractive 
of spring flowering ornamental trees. The fruit is 
small, red inside and out, remaining on the tree until 
autumn. The tree is hardy and blooms while very 
young.
