Thorns of the northern states, and in the autumn, when it is covered with its large and abundant fruits, 
it is not surpassed in beauty by many other species of the genus. 
Crategus lobulata appears to have been first collected in September, 1899, by Mr. Ezra Brainerd 
at Crown Point, where a number of trees of this species have grown to a large size on the slopes and 
in the ditch of the abandoned fort, which is now nearly covered with great thickets of Crategus of 
several species.
