Reveland,

I agree, Chestnut is excellent for fresh eating. Siberian crab is too.

I have 30 different crabapple trees, but only these two are good for fresh eating.

The Fruit Berry and Nut Inventory Third edition calls Chestnut a crab, but lists it with the apples whereas Siberian is listed with the crabs.

Chestnut has the best flavor of all the crabapples. It also has some
size to it (looks like a real apple). Rodney
