Crataegus monogyna is the native common hawthorn, a common feature in British hedgerows.
It produces small fragrant white flowers in the spring, which are followed by red haws in the autumn.
The leaves are a glossy dark green, turning yellow in the autumn.
The dense thorny stems provide a useful barrier.
Pre-order now for delivery from September onwards for pot grown trees or December for bare-root trees and mixed orders.
Crataegus monogyna will grow in most well-drained soils. It is very hardy, and tolerates pollution and coastal conditions.
