Japanese Flowering Crabapple

Also known as Japanese Crab, Showy Crabapple, Japanese Crabapple

Japanese flowering crabapples erupt in early spring with deep crimson buds that open into a profusion of pale pink and white blossoms. Small, pea-sized yellow and red fruits ripen in autumn and linger on branches into winter, providing a critical cold-weather food source for songbirds. Widely cultivated for its spreading habit and spectacular floral display, it remains one of the most disease-resistant ornamental trees in temperate landscapes.
