Crab Apple 'Butterball'

A small, spreading crab apple tree with slightly drooping branches. In spring the foliage opens grey-green, and pink buds open to single, white flowers flushed with pink. The fruit is 2-3cm across, yellow-orange with a red flush.

This apple has a very long flowering period, so belongs to all the pollination groups and therefore is ideal for using as a pollinating partner to all other apples.
