Ann said I could share this info with you all.  Hope it is helpful to anyone
wanting a pink flowering ornamental crab with persistent berries - wish I
had this information when I was selecting my crabapple trees - not sure if
you will be able to get them around here.  Worth a try if you prefer pink.

            Your recent post prompted me to dig out my msu extension
bulletion on crabapple cultivars.

            I did find one pink flowered form that is said to produce
persistent fruit: Adams. Fruit is red, 1/4". Fall foliage is said to be
yellow to orange. Buds are  red, flowers open carmine and fade to pink.

            There was another cultivar  that was pink flowered w/persistent
fruit but it  did not have a good apple scab rating .    Red Splendor.

            The info came from  Crabapples: A Selection Guide  

MSU Extension Bulletin E-2177. Authors Dr Curt Peterson and Dr Randy Heatly
(MSU = Michigan State University)
