M. theifera — Tea Crab 
The following description was given by the late Dr. E. H. 
Wilson, former Keeper of the Arnold Arboretum, who dis¬ 
covered this tree: “Rigid of branch, with wands of blossoms 
often 15 ft. long, the Chinese M. theifera is the very quintes¬ 
sence of Crabapple loveliness. It is a small tree, seldom ex¬ 
ceeding 20 feet in height, with sparse, upright and spreading, 
rather zig-zag branches. When in blossom the whole branch is 
transformed into a floral plume into which it is impossible to 
thrust a finger without touching a flower. The petals are red¬ 
dish pink in the folded bud, white or delicately stained with 
pale pink when fully expanded.”
