What are the names of flowering crab apple trees? I am looking for pink flowering trees?

There are too many to name. Crab Apple trees are easy to hyrbid to get different growth characterisitcs and thus comapnies make use of copyright laws to ensure their variety is not copied. Check with your local nursery and they will help you beyond flower color.



Other things to consider.

Leaf color (I have pink flowers and the leaves are a deep red as well)

Size (dwarf versus full)

How well they do in your area (Many of the big box stores ship similar species across mutiple zones leading to varying degree of success, check with your local University extension office or a well established nursery)

Tons of crab trees Dorthea, Katherine, etc, etc. Check with your local nursery. You know they look good in the spring. You know aphids and scale and scab and and and also love them?
