Notes
'Cinderella' crabapple (Malus 'Cinderella') is a tree for pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. White flowers open from early to late spring and attract butterflies, bees, and birds. The leaves turn yellow in fall, and the tree is drought tolerant. It is self-fertile, so you only need one tree.
Pairs well with Switchgrass, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Ruby Spice sweet pepperbush.
