MALUS-Flowering Crabs 
Small trees producing a profusion of flowers in the Spring—one of the most 
desirable and most decorative classes of our ornamental flowering trees. All are 
small trees, very free-flowering, producing masses of very showy flowers early in 
the Spring, followed in the Fall by decorative fruits that often persist on the trees 
well into the Winter. They are perfectly hardy, grow well in any good soil, and 
are very satisfactory either as specimen plants or in mass plantings. 
MALUS ioenis plena — Bechtel Double-flowering Crab 15-18 ft. 
This is probably the best known of all of the many Flowering 
Crabs. It forms a small upright bushy headed tree which is covered 
in May with large and very double fragrant pink flowers that bear 
a striking resemblance to small roses. The latest in blooming period 
of all of the Flowering Crabs. Per 10 Per 100
