Crab apple polination partner

[gasdoctor]

Hi,

Two questions

Firstly, I read somewhere that crab apples make suitable pollinatio partners for eating apples? I have a charles ross apple, and Im abou to plant some ornamental trees nearby and thought it might kill tw birds with one stone.

Which leads me on to the second question as recomendations for a coupl of ornamental trees to provide a bit of a screen.

Cheers
