It has lots of little crab apples. I bought it many years ago for a wild life which ignores it. Squirrels will strip our regular apple trees but will never touch this one. Birds are not fussy about it either, they go after me grapes.
I planted it on edge of forest in area i call Sunvalley and it thrive in partial sun. It is huge ....not at all what internet pages suggest.
The blooms in spring are gorgeous as well.

Thanks Kate.
At the beginning I used these crab apples to make jelly but not any more. I think I still have some in the freezer.

What a pity its not enjoyed by the wildlife Klahanie! It's abundant with fruit too! It's seems a lovely crabapple tree too.
