Description
Boy, what a wonderful walk on a Spring day in Ohio! Everywhere I looked I saw bulbs blooming and so many trees bursting with blossoms! Wonderful scents filled the air and beauty was everywhere. These pink Crabapple blossoms almost demanded attention!
I think this is a Prairifire Crabapple tree (Malus x 'Prairifire') which is one of the showiest trees you can plant in your yard. Although it bears tiny cherry-like fruits, which are relished by birds, Prairifire Crabapple is prized more for its stunning spring display of dark-pink to red blossoms. These trees have a host of Benefits in addition to Spring beauty. After the flowers fade, Prairifire Crabapple is still colorful. Newly emerging foliage is purplish before turning green with reddish veins and stems. In autumn, the leaves turn orange for an end-of-the season color pop. I especially love the fact that birds love these trees. The apples are the size of cherries, only about one-half inch in diameter, and birds love them! Prairifire Crabapple will be a flurry of activity when the fruits mature in summer.
Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!
