Red Baron Crabapple

‘Red Baron’ is a terrific accent tree, with a narrow, upright nature that is perfect for smaller landscapes. In spring, it is draped in striking clusters of fragrant red flowers that cover the branches. Foliage emerges a coppery-bronze, transitioning to dark green and then turning brilliant orange for autumn. The shiny, deep red fruits ripen in fall and often persist through the winter months.
