Flowering Hawthorn
20 years online - still growing strong
Flowering Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna and Crataegus laevigata) is a hardy, deciduous tree with profuse spring blossom, dense foliage, and wildlife benefits. Clusters of white or pink flowers emerge in late spring, followed by vibrant red berries in autumn, providing an essential food source for birds. Its thorny branches create natural security hedging while supporting pollinators and nesting birds. Thriving in most soils, including poor or chalky ground, Hawthorn is drought-tolerant and withstands exposed conditions. Whether grown as a standalone specimen or part of a mixed native hedge, Flowering Hawthorn adds seasonal interest and biodiversity to any landscape.
