Cut-leaf crab apple
Malus toringoides
Cut-leaf crab apple is a hardy ornamental tree that thrives in a sunny to partly shaded garden spot with well-drained, moderately fertile soil. Water consistently during the first few years to establish deep roots, then reduce frequency once the tree is established. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and remove any crossing or dead branches.
