Crataegus Laevigata Pauls Scarlet Red Flowering Hawthorn

Transform your garden every spring with the Crataegus laevigata 'Paul's Scarlet'—widely celebrated as one of the most breathtaking small ornamental flowering trees available.

Unlike standard single-flowering hawthorns, 'Paul's Scarlet' produces dense clusters of double, rose-like scarlet-pink blooms in late spring (May to June). The double blossoms look almost like tiny outdoor roses smothered across a lush canopy of deep-green, lobed foliage.

As autumn approaches, the foliage transitions into subtle yellow hues, often accompanied by small, deep red haws (berries) that attract local songbirds and beneficial pollinators.

🌿 Why You’ll Love This Tree:

• 💥 Unrivaled Spring Show: Covered in hundreds of vibrant, double-red flowers that last for weeks.

• 🏡 Perfect for Small Gardens: Compact, rounded canopy fits easily into front yards, urban gardens, or lawn focal points.

• 🛡️ Tough & Low-Maintenance: Tolerates urban pollution, heavy clay soils, coastal winds, and cold winters with ease.

• 🐦 Wildlife Friendly: Provides shelter and nesting spots for songbirds while feeding early-season pollinators.
