Hall crabapple (Malus halliana) is native to China and came to Japan in the 14th century, but can now be found across the country. The tree produces flowers in April and then fruits of 1 cm in diameter, which look like small apples. The fruits ripen in October. As hall crabapples flower in April, at almost the same time as cherry trees do, they're often disregarded but their color change is worthwhile observing. The buds are deeper pink like
Taiwan cherry blossoms but when open become paler pink but brighter than
Somei Yoshino or
Oshima cherry blossoms.
