This is Horticulture speak and abbreviations - HW (High worked) and LW (Low worked). Malus Crabapples varieties may be offered in H/W 1.2m, 1.5m or 1.8m, and some as L/W. The H/W height given indicates where the plant is grafted up a trunk - it's important to note that the trunk does not get any taller but will increase in diameter as time goes by, however the tree above the graft will perform the same way no matter what height it is grafted. A L/W tree is grafted at ground level, and this tree will start branching just above the graft. A 1.2m H/W tree will form a short trunk - useful in a garden setting for some height and underplanting, or a lawn tree that is easily mowed around. A 1.5m H/W or 1.8m HW may be more suitable if you require height in the setting, and the 1.8m HW are often used to line a drive or as avenue trees, for walking and driving clearance.
