The Thunderchild Crabapple is a popular small ornamental tree known for its long season of interest. It features striking purple foliage that deepens to dark red in the fall. In spring, the tree is covered in masses of fragrant, dark pink flowers, which give way to an abundance of ruby-red fruits that attract birds. Exceptionally hardy, the Thunderchild Crabapple boasts excellent resistance to fireblight, powdery mildew, and cedar-apple rust. It is adaptable to various soil types and highly tolerant of urban pollution, making it one of the most reliable performers in the landscape.
