Add year-round beauty and outstanding wildlife value to your landscape with the Washington Hawthorn Tree (Crataegus phaenopyrum). This native ornamental tree features attractive white spring flowers, vibrant fall foliage, and clusters of bright red berries that last into winter.

In late spring, white blossoms attract pollinators and beneficial insects. The glossy green leaves turn brilliant shades of orange, red, and purple in autumn. Bright red berries provide an important food source for birds and wildlife throughout fall and winter.

Washington Hawthorn is suitable for specimen plantings, wildlife gardens, native landscapes, windbreaks, and naturalized areas. It typically matures to 25–30 feet tall and 20–25 feet wide.

These healthy plants are shipped established in 1 gallon nursery pots, ready to thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Moderate watering is recommended; the tree is drought tolerant once established.
