Crabapple - Prairiefire Flowering Crabapple with Year-Round Appeal The Prairefire is a deciduous flowering crabapple tree with ornamental features. It would look great as a single specimen tree, or planting several along your driveway would be a spectacular way to welcome guests. Your Prairiefire tree is one of the best crabapple cultivars available. It has a long bloom period and is disease resistant. When the other trees in your yard are leafing out in the usual green hues, your Prairiefire will display a unique show of purple leaves that later transform to a green with a reddish tint. Just when you think the fun is over, pink 1-inch flowers appear, their bloom sweeping over the entire tree in a hot pink flare of color. You’ll be amazed by how your yard will suddenly become a favorite for butterflies! When the flowers have gone, ½ inch dark red “apples” form that are similar to cherries in appearance. The fruits dangle from the tree into the winter months for birds and other wildlife to enjoy. In the autumn the leaves of your Prairiefire will close out the season by attaining an exquisite orange tint. The reddish bark of the crabapple is a lovely backdrop to the white snows and will continue to delight through the cold months of winter. The Prairiefire grows to 20 feet in height with an equal spread. It has upright growth with a rounded canopy at maturity. Even without its particular features, it’s a lovely landscape tree…but its year-round appeal makes it an outstanding choice for your yard. * Year-round interest * Wildlife appeal* Hardy
