A small, vase-shaped, ornamental tree with clouds of white or pink, single or double flowers, at lilac time. It can grow to 20-30’ high and 15-30’ wide in sun. It has nice autumn foliage and scarlet-orange berries which remain on the tree for a long time. The tree makes a handsome free-standing specimen or several, informally grouped, may be used as a screen or accent. The tree will tolerate poor drainage if necessary and likes some lime in our acidic soil. 2, record 2, English, - Washington%20hawthorn
