The trees first produce bright pink buds, then white flowers which bloom for a long time.
The crab apples which follow are small, very red or reddish-orange apples up to ¼ inch (½ cm) wide.
The Adirondack Crab Apples will stay on the tree until late fall.
History Notes
Adirondack Crab Apples were developed from an open-pollinated seedling of Malus halliana ‘Koehne’, selected by a Donald Egolf at the American National Arboretum.
