Characteristics: The oblate fruit is large for a crab, averaging about 2 inches in diameter. It's light red over yellow ground and is russetted. The stem is long and slender, and the stem cavity is deep and medium-wide. Its basin is deep and wide. The yellow flesh is firm, crisp, fine-grained and juicy, and the flavor is sub-acid.
 

The large-sized crabapple was introduced in 1946 by the University of Minnesota Horticulture Research Center. Its parentage is Malinda open pollinated. The tree is medium in size, vigorous, and strong-crotched. It develops a wide-spreading to flattened head. The variety is resistant to cedar-apple rust and is moderately susceptible to apple scab and fireblight.
