Crab apples are little trees with little fruits, but very sweet-looking, and the blossoms can be quite delightful.
Don't expect the leaves or the fruit to be very big, and don't plan on eating the crab apples! We used to have crab-apples in our orchard, and we only used them for pectin.
Also, the bark gets quite peely, but that's OK. I've always found them to be charming trees, but more decorative than functional. The foliage is not always lush, but that does not mean the tree is unhealthy. I used to love climbing them as a girl.
