Why plant Lollipop® Flowering Crabapple?
As if to bloom confectionary flowers, Lollipop® Flowering Crabapple smells as sweet as it looks. You’ll find this exceptional ornamental tree absolutely covered in stunning white flowers in spring atop its classic lollipop-shaped canopy, and filling your landscape with a wonderful fragrance. The dark green foliage gently accents the blanket of blooms, then gets their time to shine in fall as the lush foliage transforms golden yellow. Then just when you think winter is coming close and the garden is about to “sleep” for the cold months, Lollipop® Flowering Crabapple trees produce tiny red fruits like hanging dum-dum lollipops the birds love to snack on! Seasons of interest and just about the cutest name - this low-maintenance beauty will quickly become the stunner of your landscape.
There are hundreds of varieties of Crabapple Trees available, but most of the older selections have fallen by the wayside, replaced by newer Trees with superior ornamental qualities and greater disease resistance. Only the very best of the older selections are still grown today, and Lollipop® Flowering Crabapple is one of these - a classic beauty with a clean bill of health. This disease-resistant crabapple originated from Lake County Nursery in Perry, Ohio, by a beloved plantsman, Jim Zampini, who became revolutionary in the world of crabapple trees.
How to use Lollipop® Flowering Crabapple in the landscape?

How To Plant Lollipop® Flowering Crabapple
Once you decide on planting a crabapple you then need to focus on flower color, fruit size and color and overall tree shape and mature size. Crabapples want just a few basics; lots of sun, well drained soil, watering thru summer droughts and occasional fertilizing.
How To Water
Water twice weekly for the first 3-5 weeks; then water weekly for the remainder of the year until winter. When you water, water very slowly and very thoroughly. The water needs to reach to the bottom of the root ball and that takes time. Watering needs may be altered due to extreme weather conditions.
How To Fertilize
Incorporate Elements Starter Plant Food granular form into the soil when planting. If planting in spring or summer, start fertilizing late fall using Elements Starter Plant Food granular form on an annual basis each late fall. If planting in the fall, use Elements Fertilizer while planting and start your regular annual fertilizing the following fall. Continue this for the first three years to get your plant well established as it gives your tree the nutrients it needs to produce lush new growth for the following spring.
How To Prune
Prune your crabapple tree in late winter. Remove any broken or crossing branches or suckers at the base of the tree. Also remove any branches that grow along the trunk from the ground up to the main body of your Lollipop Crabapple.
How Does Shipping Work?
Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you. Ask Bower & Branch about planting services – we'd be happy to assist in installation.
*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.
Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.
Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
