The Prairifire Crabapple is a small ornamental tree beloved for its vivid pinkish-red flowers that cover its branches in spring. It grows around 15–20 feet tall and wide, making it a perfect fit for small yards, borders, or near patios. After blooming, its reddish-purple foliage matures to deep green, and small dark red fruits appear in summer and persist into winter—offering food for birds and winter interest. Prairifire is resistant to common crabapple diseases like scab and fire blight, making it a low-maintenance favorite. With its compact size, four-season beauty, and wildlife value, it’s a smart and stylish choice for residential landscapes.
