green Outstanding Features:
Excellent display of white flowers in spring.

Description:
Height: 20-25'
Width: 15-20'
Hardiness Zone:

Spring Snow Crabapple has a very dense upright oval crown. It is one of the most showy white flowered crabapples with very abundant flowers that are slightly larger than most crabs. It does not produce fruit which is a valuable trait for planting in patios or over sidewalks.

Requirements and Culture:
Information provided for the species applies. Requires full sun, tolerant to a fairly wide range of soil conditions. Prune to remove suckers and watersprouts. Prune as young trees to develop good branch structure.

Limitations:
Has very good resistance to cedar-apple rust and mildew, fair resistance to fireblight but is fairly susceptible to scab.
