I have a crab apple that is big, real big. It takes four people to lift/move it so it doesn't leave the backyard. I would dearly love to show it while it is in flower but alas.......
To get a photo I try to set up a background to the best I can.

Re: The Monster Crab Apple
That’s a lovely display!! The flowers against the grey trunk look wonderful and you’re developing a classic shape too. It will be a treat to tend over the coming years.

Re: The Monster Crab Apple
Hey Watto, do you know what variety this is? Ive actually been looking at picking up a Royal Raindrops to get that hot-pink flower and red leaves.

Re: The Monster Crab Apple
I've seen this in the flesh - it's a beauty but if it has to be moved I'm sorry I'll be away that day
