Sold by Stark Bros. under the name Colonnade, this columnar-shaped, deciduous, flowering crabapple tree grows to 8' tall, but only 2' wide. A good plant for a small area. Profuse, deep pink blooms appear in April and crimson red crabapples mature in September. These crabapples can be harvested and made into jelly. Medium green leaves have a red tinge when they first appear, and turn burgundy in fall. Good pollinator for other colonnade trees. A Stark Bros. exclusive.
