They average out at 15-20' tall and 8-10' wide and create quite an abundant crop when paired with a pollinator, such as the 'Jonathan' and 'Liberty' varieties.
The 'Black Pearl' is admired for its intensely dark-purple, heart-shaped foliage. Beautiful lavender blossoms cover the entire tree in early spring, and foliage appears soon after blooms have fallen. This variety will get 15-20' tall and 20-25' wide at full maturity. They are shade tolerant, but the foliage color will be much more vivid when planted in full sun.

In the fall, glossy red fruits appear and persist for months without dropping. This variety gets 15-20' tall and wide and is a perfect specimen tree.
