In scientific literature, the term Malus × gloriosa denotes a group of ornamental hybrid apple trees known as Crab Apple. These plants are grown primarily for ornamental purposes due to their abundant flowering and the appearance of the fruits, rather than for commercial fruit production.
Characteristics of plants in this group vary. Trees typically reach a height of 3–4 meters and possess a spreading or weeping crown. During the flowering period, they are covered with pink-red flowers, forming small ornamental fruits, which are sometimes used in cooking for making jelly.
