Show-Stopping Color, Spring to Fall
With an explosion of vibrant flowers in spring and bright foliage and berries in the fall, the Show Time™ Crabapple will be the star of your landscape, nearly year-round.
Appearance
Add color with dramatic fuchsia flowers. In the spring, dense, deep fuchsia blooms lend welcome warmth to your landscape. Deep green foliage with unique rust tones turns bright red and orange in the fall. Clusters of small, glossy red berries maintain color (and attract birds) into the winter months.
Size
Moderate size, attractive shape. The Show Time™ Crabapple's moderate size makes it an easy fit for most landscapes, growing 20-25 feet tall and 15-20 feet wide. With a naturally oval shape and upright branches, it works well alone or in small clusters.
Care
Cold hardy and easy maintenance. The Show Time™ Crabapple performs in a variety of climates, ideal for zones 4-8. It tolerates cold well and will thrive in a slightly acidic, well-draining soil. Plus, the Show Time™ Crabapple is largely disease-resistant.
Additional benefits
Attract pollinators to your yard. Birds, bees, and butterflies love the Show Time™ Crabapple's eye-catching flowers and bright red fruit.
Low-maintenance shape. The Show Time™ Crabapple Tree maintains a neat shape and even branches with nearly no pruning, making it a great choice for low-maintenance landscapes.
Add flowering branches to your decor. Use spring flowers and winter berries for indoor or outdoor arrangements.

Pollination Info
Show Time™ Crabapple Tree Pollination
Show Time™ Crabapple Trees are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Show Time™ Crabapple Tree will drastically increase the size of your crop.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: The Show Time™ Crabapple prefers slightly acidic, well-draining soil. Find a spot to plant in full sun.
Once you've chosen your location, dig a hole that's large enough to accommodate the root ball, place your tree and fill the hole with soil. Water the surrounding area well to settle the roots.
2. Watering: Your Show Time™ Crabapple will thrive with regular watering. Water weekly, or when soil is dry.
3. Fertilizing: Add a 5-5-5 fertilizer in early spring each year.
4. Pruning: The low-maintenance Show Time™ Crabapple doesn't require significant pruning to keep its shape. Just lightly prune in the winter to remove dead branches.
