CIT: Crabapple Cultivars Tested As Street Trees: Second Report
Seventeen crabapple cultivars planted under utility wires in 27 communities were evaluated as street trees. In most communities, two cultivars were alternated within each of several plots. Cooperators in the Municipal Tree Restoration Program used standardized methods to measure them annually at the end of the growing period for 3 years and periodically afterwards. Many differences were found in growth rate, height,crown width and trunk diameter. This article compares the findings.
