Are you sure you are looking at Malus fusca, Rick? I keep seeing lots of
other crab apple species, but very few M. fusca hybrids. I've seen lots of
M. fusca in wet areas where other apples are unable to grow, though. I
think that will help keep the species pure. Also a reason it should be
looked at more closely - M. fusca can grow in wetter soils (I've seen them
growing partly IN water) than any other apple and according to Dr. Westwood,
is the most resistant to fireblight of all apples. Pierre Rotschky in
Vancouver, WA has done a lot of study of the species and can tell more than
I, though. I don't think he is a computer user, though. He has told me of
some interesting local blueberry species he has found that I keep meaning
to go see and haven't made it yet.
