Malus baccata is a species of apple known by the common names Siberian crabapple, Siberian crab, Manchurian crab apple and Chinese crab apple.

Siberian Crabapple is a deciduous tree with a rounded canopy of spreading branches, ultimately reaching 20 to 50 feet in height. The Siberian Crab apple is among the earliest of all crab apples to flower. The very fragrant blooms appear in great abundance, and the single, 1 1/2 inch in diameter flowers are pink when in bud but open up to white. The blooms are followed in fall by long-lasting, usually bright red and sometimes yellow fruits which are very popular with the birds or can be used to make jelly.

Apple trees begin to fruit in the 3rd year and come into full production from the 11th to 20th year. They may continue to fruit for about 100 years although the fruits may become commercially unprofitable. They require a period of winter dormancy, in general 900-1000 hours of more at less than 45°F. They performs best in areas with medium to low humidity, with long daylight hours, high light intensity and relatively warm days and cool nights.
