Malus × 'Radiant'

Radiant Flowering Crabapple

The Flowering Crabapple is a popular small ornamental tree with an extremely showy flower display in the spring. 'Radiant' produces beautiful, deep pink flowers every year. It is extremely susceptible to apple scab and powdery mildew, although it has good to moderate resistance against fireblight and cedar-apple rust. Well-drained heavy loam soils and full sun promote best growth. Many tend to look quite ragged by the end of the summer.
