My back yard has a third season flowering crab tree, I think from Manchester Nursery a Maru Royal variety tho I may have that wrong. It was from Home depot and one thin tall stick of dormant but it now is much taller, bushier and each spring throws out deep crimson leaves, reddish flowers with white stamens and pistols inside that add lots of pretty color...just getting started right now to open the flowers. I opened up my back yard and put this in so there is some spring color. the flowers are not huge, about 1.25" across each but pretty. shot with sony a7 and adapter for canon fd f 3.5 35-105mm very old lens the other day off a tripod. Not the greatest flower photos by a long shot and my back yard is very informal with a wood pile, stainless covered fire pit, etc. but it is the kind of casual I like....and it is finally warming up enough for grass seed to grow again! Hooray!
