Flowering Crabapple
(malus sargenti)

Flowering Crabapples are one of the best flowering trees for bonsai. They produce beautiful 1/2" red fragrant flowers covering the entire tree in early spring before the foliage appears. The foliage is small and lobed. Little green pomes (apples) in summer, derived from the enlargement of the entire flower receptacle which becomes fleshy. The fruit ripens to all different colors in the fall when the foliage begins to turn shades of yellow, orange and red. Winter brings a nice twiggy skeletal outline punctuated by the fruit which persists throughout the winter. They are easy to grow and quite pest resistant. Decideous. Keep outdoors.
