RED BARON CRABAPPLE

The Red Baron Crabapple is a narrow, upright tree with a small, vase-shaped oval crown when young. As it matures, the crown widens and spreads. A profusion of red flower buds open to a purplish red in May. They are followed by shiny red fruit that persist into winter. Its leaves emerge red and later in summer become a mix of red and green. In fall it ages to brilliant orange.

The Red Baron Crabapple enjoys full sun in rich, moist, well-drained soils. This cultivar tolerates urban pollution and will thrive in city environments. It is a small tree that will work in small spaces.

Planting Tips ⓘ

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH. Water regularly, but avoid overwatering. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote healthy growth.
