crabapple trees can and will litter the ground beneath them including sidewalks and anything else you may not want apples on, including your lawn . I plant crabapples only on a raised terraced area in my backyard so that my husband doesn't run them over with the lawn mower. Also if you have deer they will be attracted to them and possibly to your other plants as well. On the other hand the "Autumn Brilliance" serviceberry has very small one-half inch fruits that persist and do not litter the ground as they are quickly eaten by the birds. They are delicious and fit for human consumption. The fall color is spectacular in contrast to the crabapples usually straggly appearance at the end of summer. The serviceberry has an open airiness about it whereas crabs can cast dense shade.
