Malus × ‘Butterball’ Tree – Golden Crab Apple

Malus × ‘Butterball’ is a small, spreading crab apple tree lauded for its springtime profusion of pinkish-white flowers emerging from pink buds, followed in autumn by clusters of eye-catching, golden-yellow fruits. These persist well into winter, providing ornamental interest and food for wildlife. With slightly drooping branches under the weight of fruit, it adds graceful form to any garden.
