Descriptions

Royal Raindrops® Crabapple is a showstopper with deep purple cutleaf foliage that is unlike any other. It will make a stunning statement. The deeply lobed leaves of this crabapple are unlike any other. They look almost like a Japanese maple, which makes it look beautiful all season long. The tree blooms with beautiful bright pinkish-red flowers in the spring, which look amazing against the new purple leaves. The upright, well-branched shape grows to a perfect 20 feet tall and 15 feet wide, making it a great fit for medium-sized yards without taking up too much space. Incredibly hardy to zone 4 (and thriving through zone 8), Royal Raindrops resists common diseases beautifully, so your tree stays healthy and gorgeous with minimal fussing. The unique purple cutleaf leaves make this tree stand out in the landscape and draw the eye right away. This tree is great as a specimen tree, in mixed borders, or anywhere you want year-round drama and beauty that will make your neighbors ask about it.
