Can anyone ID this crabapple? It's on the grounds where I work and I go on a hunt every fall to try to find out its name. It has hot pink flowers in spring, stunning yellow/orange foliage in fall, and then long after the leaves drop, it is loaded with fruit. In the fall the fruit is a marvelous blend of bright orange, yellow and brick red. As winter approaches, the fruit turns deep red (just in time for Christmas :). It is such a perfect four-season tree - I MUST have it but I have never been able to ID it. One other note - its pretty compact - about 8 feet tall and 7-8 feet wide - not nearly as wide as most crabapples.
