Folks who have
bought this accent tree love its unique growth habit - it looks rugged and
windswept when young. This Hawthorn would do well anywhere in Wyoming. It’s an
attractive broad -headed tree, with small 3/8 inch thorns. Leaves are deeply
lobed and medium green in summer. Numerous white flowers emerge in the spring
and by late September the whole tree begins to glow as the abundant cherry like
fruit ripens. They decorate the branches like ornaments, persisting into winter,
and make a great bird attractant! This one wants full sun. This tree has done
well at the Cheyenne Experiment Station for over 70 years!
