We often eat apples. The round red apples are very good for health. Eating an apple every day can keep us away from diseases. However, many people have rarely seen apple trees. It is said that apple trees and crabapple trees look very similar, and many people don’t know how to distinguish them. Now, let’s take a look at how to distinguish crabapple trees from apple trees. Differences between Apple Trees and Crabapple Trees 1. Different living environment The crabapple tree likes the sun, but can also survive in semi-shaded and cold places. It is best to choose fertile and loose soil for planting crabapple trees. Apple trees can also grow in most climates, but it is best to plant apple trees in areas between 35-50 degrees north and south latitude. Apple trees are a kind of fruit tree. If we see a tree that is very similar to an apple tree on the side of the road, we can be sure that it is a crabapple tree, because apple trees are generally not planted on the roadside for people to appreciate. 2. Differences in Fruits To distinguish between apple trees and crabapple trees, we can tell from the fruits on the trees that apples are red and large in size, while crabapples are slightly smaller. Apples can be red or green, and crabapple fruits turn yellow when they are ripe. Therefore, we can tell the difference between apple trees and crabapple trees from the color and size of the fruits. 3. The difference between leaves When judging whether a tree is an apple tree or a crabapple tree, in addition to looking at its fruit, you also need to look at its leaves. The leaves of the crabapple tree and the apple tree are different in color. The leaves of the crabapple tree are a bright green and very conspicuous, while the leaves of the apple tree are dark green and appear duller. 4. The difference between flowers The difference between the crabapple tree and the apple tree can also be seen from the color of the flowers. The flowers of the apple tree are generally light pink with a little white in the middle, while the flowers of the crabapple tree are generally pink with a little white. In a word, the color of the crabapple tree's flowers is slightly darker, and the color of the apple tree's flowers is slightly lighter. |
