The Washington Hawthorn (Crataegus phaenopyrum) is a small, deciduous tree known for its multi-seasonal beauty and wildlife value. Growing 25-30 feet tall with a rounded crown, it features clusters of fragrant white flowers in late spring, followed by vibrant red berries that persist into winter. Its glossy green leaves turn stunning shades of orange, red, and purple in autumn. The thorny branches provide shelter for birds and wildlife, while the berries are a valuable food source. Thriving in well-drained soil and full sun, the Washington Hawthorn is a hardy and ornamental choice for landscapes, offering year-round interest.
