Crabapples are small trees that are hardy once established. Grow in full sun to part shade. 
Will grow well on most soils, but prefers a deep, moist, loamy soil.
 
Pruning requirements are minimal. Prune in winter to achieve a good shape in the early years.
 
Crabapples are self-fertile, and make useful pollinators for eating and cooking apples.
