Profusion Flowering Crabapple Tree
Description
Seasonal impact! Upright, spreading tree is a popular variety for the landscape. Buds open to deep-pink, single bloom flowers in spring that attract bees and other beneficials. After the flowers have finished, the tree continues its appeal through summer with purplish foliage that matures to a glossy bronze. Small, maroon-red fruit ripens in fall – an excellent food source for wildlife! Cold-hardy. Disease-resistant to cedar apple rust. Matures to be 20-25' tall and wide.
