Planning to install this yourself? We recommend a size 15 Gallon or smaller for DIY installations. These sizes do not require any offloading equipment.
Any tree or shrub that is sized by HEIGHT or CAL (Caliper- size where the trunk meets the root flare) is delivered with a large root ball wrapped in burlap (B&B). They are typically 1000+ LBS per plant. They will require heavy equipment to install. Installation is not included in the price of the plant. We highly recommend adding the ServeScape ‘One-Click’ Installation service (must be added at the cart page) for material of this size, or working with a contractor that can provide equipment for installation.

For any tree or shrub that is sized larger than 10’ HEIGHT or 3” CAL, the customer will be required to provide offloading equipment or a contractor to offload unless paying for installation through ServeScape. We will coordinate delivery with you so that your contractor can have equipment ready upon your plant's arrival!

Sweet Crabapple is a small native fruiting deciduous tree with a broad open crown and a wonderful spring flower display.   The yellow-green foliage with pale green undersides turn yellow in fall.  Fragrant pink flowers that fade to white coat the branches in spring attracting butterflies.  Despite the name, Sweet Crabapple's fragrant small yellow fruits are sour and best used for cider.  Best fruiting in full sun with moist, slightly acidic, well-drained soil.

Dwarf stock is easier to maintain and produces fruit at an earlier age.
