Courageous™ Crabapple
Malus hybrid ‘DurLawrence’
Bred by Todd West, Ph.D.
Introduced by First Editions® Shrubs and Trees.
Submitted by Bailey Nurseries.
Courageous™ Crabapple hits the mark with year-round interest and disease resistance. In spring, the tree is covered in pink buds that transform into fragrant lilac-pink flowers. The new leaves exhibit a maroon appearance before changing to green-bronze in summer. Fall brings yellow-orange foliage, adding another layer of interest to this upright tree. With little to no fruit production, Courageous™ maintains a tidy look that continues into winter. It is a low-maintenance variety with excellent resistance to fire blight and scab. Grows to 6′ wide by 18-20′ tall. Zones 2a–7b.
Available as #10 containers and as bare root from Bailey Nurseries (Booth #17019).
