Crataegus X Media Pauls Scarlet Garden Trees

Crataegus x media Pauls Scarlet AGM (Double Red Hawthorn)

There’s something indescribably enchanting about hawthorn. Foaming white Blackthorn is one of the earliest blossoms seen in March but you won’t mind waiting until May when Scarlet hawthorn explodes with masses of fragrant pretty pale double-red flowers that tremble in soft winds throughout June. Pollinators swarm among the blossoms and after flowering, clusters of red berries adorn its branches providing vital forage for birds and small creatures. An invaluable choice for wildlife-friendly gardens, home cooks will enjoy concocting cordial, jellies and wine —be quick to harvest the berries though but leave some for the birds. Scarlet hawthorn is a colourful, unflinching small tree that takes all weathers without breaking its stride. Deeply-lobed polished green leaves mellow to burnished gold, chestnut and bronze. In winter the bare branches create a thorny thicket that provide security for nesting birds. If you’re looking for a beautiful compact tree that delivers year-long interest, Scarlet hawthorn is an admirable choice.
