Crab apples as pollinators
« on: August 20, 2014, 18:54 »
My Egermont apple tree has died and I am planning on planting a Bardsey apple tree which is pollinating group 2 or B,i would like a crab apple too which I know will pollinate apple's but i cant for the life of me find out which pollinating group they belong to or if different types of crabs come under different pollinating groups.Does anybody know?

This site lists the crabapples as early mid late etc and gives some guidance  :)

Thank you for that so according to that they span several pollinating groups so I'll just have to hope B is one of them,maybe thats why they don'tgive a specific group cos it could be two or three.Thats what im hopeing
