Malus, Flowering Crabapple 
The Flowering Crabapples have few rivals among 
gorgeous spring flowering trees and shrubs. At the 
Arnold Arboretum one of the most important events 
of the year is the blooming of the Crabapples, followed 
by the showy fruit in Autumn. Most varieties are of 
greatest value as feed in winter for Pheasants, Grouse 
and other birds, or for jellies and preserves. 
The sizes we can supply follow the descriptions of 
each variety. Prices are for strong plants. For extra 
specimens price is made to cover increased value.
