Crabapples are grown for their showy flowers and attractive, brightly-colored fruit. Blooms are snowy white.

Prairie Crabapple   SOLD OUT FOR 2025

Malus ioensis | Zones 3-8 | Soil: Moist, Well-Drained

A true native apple indigenous to the Midwestern prairie states.   Prairie crabs have a shrubby/bushy appearance and make excellent “islands” of cover and shade in old field type habitats that deer and other mammals can rest under on a sunny day.  While the green fruits aren’t the greatest for fresh eating by human standards, they are very tart, high in pectin, and make a great addition to jellies. A top deer hunters option.   Native to WI and the upper Midwest.
