Description
Traditional Native Hedge Plant - Crataegus Monogyna, commonly known as Hawthorn, is a classic choice for hedgerows, valued for its dense growth habit, thorny branches, and clusters of white spring flowers followed by bright red berries in autumn. It provides both beauty and function in the landscape.
Hardy & Versatile - Exceptionally tough and adaptable, Hawthorn thrives in a wide range of soils, including exposed and windy sites. It is ideal for creating natural boundaries, field hedgerows, and wildlife friendly garden borders.
Excellent for Wildlife - Highly beneficial to pollinators and birds, the flowers attract bees and insects, while the autumn berries provide an important food source for birds. The dense, thorny growth also offers safe nesting and shelter for small animals.
Compact Height for Versatile Use – This variety typically reaches an eventual height of around 40–60cm, making it ideal for lower hedging, edging, and smaller garden spaces where a neat, manageable barrier is desired.
