Robinson Crabapple

The Robinson Crab Apple is a superb choice for a small spring-flowering tree in colder parts of the country. It will bloom reliably where other spring trees fail. In warmer areas it continues the spring display into May, as well as carrying clusters of attractive bright red fruit right into the winter months. It grows into a small tree, 15 to 25 feet tall, and a similar width, with a rounded crown. The young spring leaves are a rich purple, emerging just as the flowers fade. They change for the summer into deep green, and then turn orange in the fall. The flowers begin as burgundy-red buds, open deep pink, and then turn paler pink, before ending almost white. The kaleidoscope of colors makes the tree always interesting throughout all the seasons. Mature size is 15-25 ft tall/wide Hardy in zones 4-8 Full Sun to Light Shade Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit.
