I'm very fond of crab apples, they are good small garden trees with blossom and useful fruit - 'Golden Hornet' would be nice for a golden wedding, white blossom and large yellow fruit that makes great crab apple jelly.

You'll get all sorts. Friends of mine bought golden roses for their parents - a whole bed of them. Obelix - Belgium

It is said to be dedicated to Venus, the goddess of love, which I thought very romantic. Their plant was not large, but I put it in a pretty container and wrote out a page about the folklore connected with it. They seemed delighted and the plant has been well cared for.
