(Malus baccata, Borkh. Malus microcarpa var. <br /> baccata, Carr. M. baccata var. sibirica, Schneid.). Siberian Crab. Fig. <br /> 3288. Small round- headed tree, with a compact crown, smooth in all its <br /> parts at maturity; growth hard and wiry: lvs. ovate to ovate-lanceolate <br /> or ovate-acuminate, thin and glabrous, on slender petioles, finely and <br /> nearly evenly serrate, bright green: fls. appearing with the lvs. on <br /> long and very slender (2-3 in.) greenish pedicels, white, handsome; <br /> style mostly longer than the stamens, lightly hairy or glabrous: fr. <br /> from the size of a pea to 3/4in. diam., on long, hard sts., yellow or <br /> red and firm and often translucent in texture, never becoming mellow, <br /> the calyx falling away before maturity. Siberia to Manchuria and <br /> N.China. B.M. 6112. M.D.G. 1899:454. Gt. 11:202. —Difficult to <br /> distinguish from P. pulcherrima: larger, becoming a distinct tree, <br /> sometimes as large as a large apple tree: lvs. with blunter teeth, and <br /> usually much longer, very slender, hard, glabrous petioles: fls. <br /> lighter colored, usually white; vernation convolute (lvs. rolled in the <br /> bud). It runs into many forms, particularly in fr. Var. mandshurica, <br /> Maxim. (Malus baccata var. mandshurica, Schneid.). Low densely branched <br /> tree when growing in the open but tall and wide-spreading in forests: <br /> lvs. broader, elliptic or round-elliptic, mostly entire, the petiole, <br /> rib, and nerves, as well as infl., more or less hairy: style scarcely <br /> as long as the stamens: fr. elliptic, atout 1/2in. diam. Amur region, <br /> Korea, Cent. China, Japan. Var. himalaica, Maxim. (Malus baccata var. <br /> himalaica, Schneid.). Lvs. very broad-oval, coarsely serrate, more or <br /> less hairy underneath, particularly on midrib. W. Himalaya. A handsome <br /> form from Korea with pure white large fls., large dark green lvs. and <br /> large dark red fr., is distinguished by Rehder as forma Jackii: from <br /> var. mandshurica it differs in being glabrous.— The Siberian crabs of <br /> pomolo- gists belong to P. baccata, but to which of the several <br /> botanical forms (if to any of them) is not clearly determined; the <br /> species is also used in cold countries as a stock on which to graft the <br /> common apple. It is a species of great hardiness, withstanding the <br /> climate in the Canadian N. W. provinces. It is much subject to blight <br /> (pear-blight) and for this reason its usefulness is much limited. <br /> Hybrids with P. Malus promise a valuable type of apple for cold <br /> regions. See Fig- 648, Vol. I, and pp. 569 and 570. The large-fruited <br /> pomological crab-apples of the Hyslop and Transcendent type are <br /> supposed to be hybrids between P. baccata and P. Malus, and to these <br /> forms the name P. prunifolia has been applied but probably erroneously. <br /> The P. cerasifera, Spach, is of the P. baccata group, and is probably a <br /> hybrid: it makes a large tree with spreading head, and bears very large <br /> pure white fls.: the fr. is variable in size, shape, and color, and <br /> either retains or drops the calyx.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> Describe the plant here...<br /> <br /> ==Cultivation==<br /> &lt;!--- Type cultivation info below this line, then delete this entire line --&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Propagation===<br /> &lt;!--- Type propagation info below this line, then delete this entire line --&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pests and diseases===<br /> &lt;!--- Type pest/disease info below this line, then delete this entire line --&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Species==<br /> &lt;!-- This section should be renamed Cultivars if it appears on a page for a species (rather than genus), or perhaps Varieties if there is a mix of cultivars, species, hybrids, etc --&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Gallery==<br /> {{photo-sources}}&lt;!-- remove this line if there are already 3 or more photos in the gallery --&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;gallery&gt;<br /> Image:Upload.png| photo 1<br /> Image:Upload.png| photo 2<br /> Image:Upload.png| photo 3<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> *[[Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture]], by L.
