THE ENGLISH HAWTHORN (C. Oxyacantha, Linn.). Grows 

 wild in Europe and Asia. We plant it extensively in the 

 United States. Its leaf is deeply cleft, often like the parsley 

 haw. Many varieties of the parent species are grown MT 

 their showy flowers, some white, some pink, and for the hand- 

 some, coral-red, clustered fruits.
