Tina Sargent crab apple
Family:
Rosaceae (rose family)

Species native to Japan

Comments:
This is a 6' dwarf, multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub. Red buds open to white flowers in late April to early May. Fruits are also red. It is highly resistant to the diseases normally associated with crab apples (scab, fireblight) and to Japanese beetles. Would make a nice specimen or use in a mass planting.
