Description
This is the White flowering crabapple tree commonly known as the tea crabapple, it bears large white flowers in the spring that develop into a not very pleasent crabapple through the summer. The fruit is bitter to the taste and supposedly causes some nausea, hence its name the crab apple.The tree does not stand more than 8 ft tall but it is very sturdy and despite its being a mild shade tree, its many branches give home to several nests at home. The flowers in spring and the fruit in the summer release a sweet scent that attracts many insects and birds. Its leaves are small and oval

Thank you for you kind comments Randy. I will go back and check. It gets a little confusing at times lol. I will make sure I resubmit the one you missed!

Arlene, got this awesome beauty to relate to, and comment on, so will do so, due to its finesse of capture and presentation, however, your 1st and 3rd showed up just fine for the click and promote or comment, but second one says, "Not available for viewing" or can not be found, so you may want to check this out, as you could repost this single shot or delete, as only two on this thread are allowed at one submission, so that may be the problem. Love what I saw, and an only imagine what I missed! Forever, Elvis
