Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This large-fruited, edible crabapple is in our opinion the best tasting of all the edible crabs, deep-red radish shaped fruit are good for jelly, pickling and fresh eating; pretty pink buds open up to masses of 2" white flowers in spring on this old-time handsome 15-20' tree. S/M
