The Prairifire Crabapple (Malus ‘Prairifire’) is a small, ornamental deciduous tree celebrated for its vibrant color and year-round interest. Typically reaching 15 to 20 feet tall and wide, it produces a stunning spring display of deep pink to reddish flowers that attract pollinators. Its new foliage emerges reddish-purple, maturing to a glossy dark green before turning orange-red in fall. Small, persistent dark red fruits follow the blooms, providing winter food for birds and adding decorative appeal. Highly disease-resistant and adaptable, the Prairifire Crabapple thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for landscapes seeking bold seasonal color and low maintenance.
