Malus 'Dolgo' (Dolgo Crabapple)
Please note: Due to import restrictions, Dolgo Crabapple cannot be shipped to California.
The Dolgo Crabapple is an excellent pollinator for other apple trees, with blooms that last for weeks. It's a top choice for making crabapple jelly. Dolgo has strong resistance to fire blight and apple scab. Its small, tart fruit hangs on the tree into winter, dropping slowly—making it ideal for attracting deer and other wildlife. The tree is self-fertile and thrives in USDA hardiness zones 3-9.
