Often referred to as a crabapple for all seasons, the Sugar Tyme cultivar is a beautiful yet compact tree that makes a striking addition to your garden or landscaping. Sugar Tyme crabapple is an upright, oval, deciduous tree with year-round interest. Opening from pale pink buds, masses of pure white flowers appear in mid-spring. Draped in clusters along the branches, they are truly a sight to behold. The showy blossoms are followed by abundant, radiant red fruits, 1/2 in. (1.2 cm), that remain on the tree all year (unless the birds eat them). Equally attractive is the crisp foliage of glossy, rich green ovate leaves, which becomes bronze-yellow in the fall. A beautiful flowering crabapple tree that is disease resistant and looks spectacular all year long. The Sugar Tyme has a medium growth rate and reaches a mature height of about 14ft. to 20 ft. It is hardy to minus 15° (USDA Hardiness Zones 4-8). It grows in moist, well-drained, acidic soil, in full sun locations for best flowering. They are not recommended for sandy soil due to their inability to tolerate drought, but any other soil is suitable, including clay. The tree is shipped in a #5 pot with an average tree height between 2 ft. to 3 ft.
