I purchased a Praire Fire Crabapple tree yesterday. I was pretty sure i picked out the right one for me. I am a little concered as I search online now. The tree I bought is very small. I think its a young tree. It is about 4-5 tall. and the trunk of it is not very big. The color of the bark is a really rich reddish brown and the leaves have excellent color as well as buds still on it. Will this tree survive here in MN, and did I pick out a good one? Any information is welcomed and appreciated! Thank you!

If you bought the tree from a reputable company you should be fine. They should be selling plants and trees that will grow in your area. According to the hardiness map, if you live south of St Paul your tree should thrive. The tree seems to be very healthy. The size should be no concern. All tree and bushes are small at some point!
