The foilage of PINK PRINCESS® crabapple emerges purple and becomes bronze-green as the season progresses. Pink blossoms are followed by red fruit in the fall. This cultivar has a dwarf, spreading habit.

Crabapples are small flowering trees that provide a showy display in the spring landscape for 1 to 2 weeks. In addition to the eye-catching buds and flowers, their foliage, habit, and fruit make them attractive plants almost year round. They are actively hybridized for flower color, leaf color, fruit size/color, shape, and most importantly, disease resistance. Crabapple fruits are usually not eaten by humans but are beloved by birds. Most crabapples benefit from modest amounts of pruning to eliminate water sprouts and improve airflow.
