Crataegus. Hawthorns 



The thorns are strong, hardy growers in almost 

 any soil or climate. They are particularly bright 

 and attractive when the Autumn foliage changes 

 to brilliant colors. They flower abundantly in 

 May and June, and are fragrant and sho\\y. Some 

 varieties have very ornamental fruits, which make 

 pleasing Fall and Winter decorations. Most kinds 

 are capable of being sheared and may be trained 

 into thick, dense hedges, which their thorns make 

 almost impenetrable.
