above the shrubs these plants give height and color and in many cases add fine 
foliage effects after flowering.

ers are large, applebitossom pink, double, and fragrant. Has all the color and 
fragrance of the native wild crabapple with larger and showier double flowers.

Eley’s Crab: An unusual Oriental crabapple that is fine for landscape use. In spring 
the plant has loads of bright red single flowers. The young leaves are red in
