watering

Flowering crabapple (Malus 'Schrazam' SCARLET BRANDYWINE) should be watered about once every 10 days during the growing season. The exact amount depends on the soil and weather conditions; in general, gently drench the soil then let it dry somewhat between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so soil should be monitored regularly and watered only when it is dried at least an inch into topsoil. During hot, dry summer months, the tree may require additional waterings. In autumn, reduce watering or cease altogether if the tree isn't showing signs of stress. Monitor the soil well to ensure there it is not becoming too dry or too wet.

sunlight

Flowering crabapple (Malus 'Scbrazam' SCARLET BRANDYWINE) will grow best in full sun, meaning it needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. When it comes to the amount of sunlight needed, flowering crabapple trees should receive part- to full-sun, depending on the climate in which it is grown. In cooler conditions, the tree can handle up to 8 hours of direct sunlight. In hotter climates, however, it is best to place the tree in a spot that receives dappled or indirect sunlight for part of the day to help reduce heat and light stress.

pruning

Pruning of flowering crabapple (Malus 'Scbrazam' SCARLET BRANDYWINE) can be done during the dormant season, generally December through March. Most of the pruning should take place in late winter or early spring, before budbreak. Pruning should be relatively light to promote flowering instead of vegetative growth. Remove dead, diseased, or weak branches, as well as crossing or rubbing branches. Make sure to also remove any branches that grow inside the canopy of the tree. Branches that stick out past the canopy can be pruned back to the desired length. Spread the branches out evenly within the canopy. Pruning can be done with either shears or a pruning saw, depending on the thickness of the branches.
