Stunning Good Looks, Month to Month

Why Prairifire Crabapple Trees?

The Prairifire Crabapple is showy all year long. Plant several along your driveway and create a grand entrance for your guests, no matter what time of year they arrive.

You'll get a rush of warm color in the spring. The spring months deliver gorgeous purple and red leaves to the Prairifire Crabapple, while tons of pink-magenta flowers welcome vibrant color. While your neighbors' yards fade in the summer heat, your Prairifire will still bring magnificent warm hues to your landscape.

Even in winter, this tree still brings warmth to your yard. The bark of the Prarifire is a mix of gray and deep orange, with cherry-like berries that persist into the chilly months. As the first frost hits your region, the Prairifire still manages to stand out and add warmth.

And there's no mess left for you to clean up. The birds love this tree so much that you won't have to worry about fruit falling on your lawn. You can enjoy the beauty of this tree without worrying about withered fruit littered on your grass.

Most Crabapples succumb to disease after several years, but the Prairifire stands strong. So, you don't have to worry about keeping a constant eye for pests and ailments, and you won't have to use harsh chemicals or sprays.

One year later…

I got my Prairifire Crabapple Tree in the middle of summer and I didn’t think the tree was going to make it but one year later it looks gorgeous! It’s doing amazing 🤩 The first 3 pictures were taken 1 month after being planted and the last three show the current situation with beautiful booms.

About to bloom

This tree is strong. You wait a full year for two weeks in early spring to see beautiful pink flowers, totally worth it. It even survived movement from it original placement after two years. Very happy with the purchase.

Beautiful tree

We purchased the crabapple tree last spring. It has exceeded our expectations. It is such a beautiful tree and is loaded with crabapples this year. The first photo is last year after planting, and the others are this year.

Bad start but great recovery, thanks

I was so excited to get my tree. It arrived on the hottest day of the year. The tree looked bad, with no green leaves, only brown ones. But I got a replacement tree, a different type, which is thriving.
