My grandmother passed away this year and my husband and I want to plant a couple of crabapples in her honor. She used to make the best crabapple jelly and the tree makes me think of her. I am not as talented as she was and won't be making any jelly so decided to go with a small fruit variety. After reading this post I've got my heart set on "Bob White". We have asked all the best local nurseries in Fairfield, CT with no luck. We aren't too far from you...can you recommend an nursery to call? If not, can you recommend another small fruit variety that you love and might be easier to find? Thanks in advance - I'm such a fan. Maureen Hi Margaret.

I got mine locally, so I know they are in commercial production. I recommend that you ask the best local nursery (the one with best trees and shrubs) to get it in for you; my local places will always do that, though I may have to wait for a delivery later in the season. They have access to the wholesale lists that we don't, and hopefully one of their suppliers will have it. Don't know whee you are located, so my local source is probably of no use. Welcome, Carol.
