This award-winning small tree delivers gorgeous spring blossom, autumn fruits and excellent wildlife value. Originating in 1858, Crataegus media ‘Paul’s Scarlet’ has long been a popular choice for small gardens. It forms a small tree with a rounded crown, less thorny than the wild species and clothed in dark green lobed leaves. In May it bears masses of fully double, light red flowers followed by small red haws in autumn. It provides dense cover for nesting birds which also enjoy the red berries. This extremely hardy tree tolerates a wide range of soils including shallow chalk and is resistant to urban pollution, exposed positions and coastal sites. RHS Award of Garden Merit. Height: 6m (19.6ft). Spread: 5m (16.4ft).
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
