Thunderchild Flowering Crab vs Discovery Japanese ElmMalus x astringens Thunderchild Ulmus davidiana var. japonica Discovery SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Thunderchild Flowering Crab is a hybrid crab apple known for its attractive and fragrant dark pink blossoms and deep purple mature leaves. Discovery Japanese Elm is great for anyone who doesn't have a lot of time to maintain their trees as it doesn't drop many seeds. It has beautiful dark green foliage and is resistant to Dutch Elm Disease. This elm is similar in shape to the American Elm but is roughly 30% smaller. Instead of having an irregular and broad-shaped crown as other Japanese Elms do, the Discovery Japenses Elm has symmetrical branching, an upright growth form, and develops a classic vase-like crown.
