Tough, dependable, easy to grow deciduous tree with dense, rounded habit and dark green foliage. In May it will be laden with fragrant, round clusters of blossom, rich red with prominent white eyes, which are popular with pollinating insects. In autumn shiny red haws in bunches can be seen all over the tree and these persist after the leaves have fallen. They are good food for birds, especially finches and tits. 4.6 x 4.6m (15 x 15ft) in 20 years, ultimate height 7.6m (25ft).

Br = Bare Root Plant
Bare-Root Plants
Bare-root plants are sold without a pot/soil around the roots. This is a more cost effective and environmentally friendly way of growing plants. To ensure the best plant health we do not store our plants in cold storage, but they are left in our field or plant beds until they are ready for packing or collection.
Items marked Br are bare rooted plants grown from cuttings and are typically 1-2 years old.
Availability
Bare rooted plants are only available when the plants are dormant (typically from late November to March).
If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.
