Malus, Flowering Crabapple 
The Flowering Crabapples have few rivals among 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 heavy specimens prices are 
made to cover increased value.
