An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.
Although Selkirk seems to be seldom seen, some sources insist it is still the finest pink flowering crab. Spring brings masses of magnificent purple-pink blooms followed by extra glossy, crimson, 3/4" fruit, which extends the ornamental appeal of this tree on through summer, fall and early winter. Hardy vase shaped tree can reach 6m (20') in height and 7m (24') in width. Superb disease resistance.
