Grow Tips: Plant in full sun with 6+ hours of sunlight per day. Prefers moist but well-drained, slightly acidic soils. However, crabapples can tolerate varied conditions as long as they aren’;t too extreme. Average water needs, some drought tolerance once established. If desired, fertilize in early spring using a granular (not liquid) fertilizer formulated for woody plants, like a rose or tree fertilizer. One application a year is sufficient in most areas. However, if you are starting with a very small plant, you may wish to fertilize monthly through late July to encourage more rapid growth. Little needed. You may selectively prune out branches to achieve a desired shape and habit if you wish, but regular pruning is neither required nor recommended.
