Malus sargentii ‘Select A’
Zone: 4
Size: 8’ H x 10’ W
For a small tree, ‘Firebird®’ makes a big impact! Dramatic red buds open to reveal snow white flowers. Branching is quite lateral; resulting in a broad, rounded crown. Excellent disease resistance across the board results in pleasing foliage all summer. Fall brings yellow tones. Heavy crops of persistent, red, mid-sized fruits provide considerable winter interest. ‘Firebird®’ makes the perfect focal point for smaller spaces. Horizontal branching gives it a whimsical feel that adds a little magic to areas it occupies. While Crabapple flowers are fleeting, this cultivar is full of character year-round.
