CRAB. Small trees flowering in May and very desirable 
for landscape purposes. They easily take the place of 
Japanese Cherries which are not dependable here. The 
crabs are hardy and afford a good range of colors. The 
blossoms last longer than the flowering plum or cherry 
blossoms and several bear fruit excellent for jelly or 
preserves.
