Chinese Elm 
CRAB, Flame. (Minnesota No. 635.) 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 mediurn 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 is 
attractive to winter birds. See picture on page 13.
