Dolgo Crabapple Tree

Dolgo Crabapple Tree

Resilience in Nature

(Malus 'Dolgo'): A long-time favorite all-purpose crabapple variety, this tree bears its heritage from Russia, having been imported in the late 19th century. Revered for its enduring appeal and versatility, the Dolgo Crabapple Tree boasts a robust profile with an upright, open growth habit that reaches dimensions of up to 30 by 25 feet.

The Dolgo Crabapple Tree is distinguished by its abundant and striking features. Sprouting large, fragrant white flowers, it offers an aesthetic flourish during its blooming phase. Beyond its ornamental charm, the tree produces distinctive 1 1/2-inch oval-shaped red fruits that are not only visually pleasing but also serve as a foundation for delectable, bright red jelly.

Embodying resilience, the Dolgo Crabapple Tree exhibits an innate resistance to common ailments including scab, rust, mildew, and fire blight, which ensures its longevity and vitality. Boasting a self-sufficient nature, the tree requires approximately 500 chilling hours to thrive, making it a hardy contender for various climates.

Moreover, its self-fruitfulness renders it a valuable pollenizer for many commercial apple varieties, a feature that underscores its broader ecological significance. Overall, the Dolgo Crabapple Tree stands as a testament to horticultural history and enduring botanical excellence, embodying both aesthetic allure and functional utility.
