Discover the charm and utility of Malus coronaria, also known as Sweet Crabapple or Garland Crab. Native to North America, this versatile species populates regions from the Great Lakes to the Ohio valley and beyond. Malus coronaria is often a bushy shrub with rigid, contorted branches however, it can also mature into a small tree, reaching heights of up to 33 feet. Notable for its broad open crown, Malus coronaria thrives in rich, moist soil and blooms later than the domestic apple. The fragrant fruit, although harsh and acidic, creates delicious jellies and can be eaten raw when fully ripe. Stored over winter, the fruit loses much of its acidity by spring, and can be dried and preserved for future use. The fruit is also rich in pectin, known for its jam-making properties and potential radiation protection. A deciduous tree that breathes life into any space, the Malus coronaria is hardy to zone 4 and frost-resistant. As an added bonus, the plant is noted for attracting wildlife, making it an excellent choice for nature lovers.
