Notes: A flowering crabapple hardy enough for the northern plains. White flowers bloom in May followed by small, shiny bright red fruit that persists into winter. Starlite has dark green, glossy, disease resistant foliage. Good for space challenged sites due to its upright branching habit. The glossy pointy leaves turn an outstanding yellow in the fall.
