' PINK GIANT 
Flowering Crab 
A Carl A. Hansen Introduction 
We have seen many flowering crabs, but this is the 
first one at which we are completely awed. The flowers 
are huge, brilliantly pink and the showiest things imag- 
inable. Among our many groups of flowering crabs, 
Pink Giant, with its gaudy blossoms, outshines all the 
rest. In addition to their large size, they open wide, 
which tends to make them look even bigger. After its 
gorgeous flowers, come small, brilliantly red fruits which 
hang on well into the winter and make fine feed for the 
birds. 
The tree is of strong, upright growth with heavy 
branches and main trunk. The leaves on the tips of the 
branches are tinted with red, giving the whole tree an 
unusually decorative effect, even when not in bloom. 
Pink Giant is of a very hardy strain, and tests so far 
have proved it should thrive to the Canadian line and 
beyond. In the nursery it is a very vigorous and an un- 
usually fast growing tree, and as far as we know im-

A Niels E. Hansen Introduction 
A remarkable tree which is entirely covered with beautiful 
ROSE colored blossoms in May. It is a cross of Niedzwet- 
zkyana, a red fleshed, red-flowering apple from Turkestan, 
and the Siberian Crab. Hopa is very hardy, blooms when 
but five feet in height, and is of such striking beauty that 
it deserves a place on every lawn. The fruit is red inside and 
out, and is very ornamental. 
The tree makes a very strong, well balanced growth. The 
color of the leaves and bark livens up the landscape and 
gives it a cheerful aspect throughout the year. The foliage 
for summer color and the reddish colored bark for winter 
scenery. 
For the best effect and to bring out its beauty Hopa may 
be planted in a group with other tall growing shrubbery or 
trees, or it may be planted as a specimen tree with excellent 
results, for as such it shows up splendidly.
