Crabapple 'Adirondack', Crab Apple 'Adirondack', Malus Admiration, Malus 'Admiration'
Consistently rated as superior crabapple, Malus ‘Adirondack’ is a pretty, small deciduous tree with a long season of interest. Opening from deep carmine buds, masses of fragrant, large, waxy, white blossoms appear in late spring, just as the fresh green foliage is unfolding. It is one of the most profusely flowered of all crabapple cultivars. The blooms are followed by abundant clusters of cherry-like, glossy, bronze-red fruits, 1/2 in. wide (1 cm), which persist well into winter. Any unpicked fruits will remain colorful and decorative but will gradually turn mushy and wild birds will feast on them. Disease resistant, unique in form, elegant in flower, colorful in fruit, ‘Adirondack’ stars in every season of the year.
