Generalities of the Crategus plant:

Hawthorn, also commonly called crataegus, is a thorny tree native to Europe that can reach a maximum height of eight meters and a diameter of one and a half to five meters. There are numerous varieties of this species, including pink flowers, resulting from the crossing of this species with another, the Monogyna. The leaves of the hawthorn have an obovate shape of light green color while the flowers appear white gathered in corymbs; the flowering period is May while during the autumn season the hawthorn produces ovoid fruits with a bright red color when they reach maximum ripeness. As far as exposure is concerned, crataegus oxyacantha can grow in full sun but can tolerate even partial shade well. This is why it is also suitable for gardens that are not affected by the sun's rays all day long.

Crategus Plant Cultivation and Care:

Hawthorn easily adapts to all types of soil, it is a plant that loves high temperatures but tolerates winter cold well. It does not require abundant watering as it tolerates drought such as excessive humidity and if the soil is poor it gives a complete specific granular fertilizer. The hedges are pruned from July to March; if they undress at the bottom they can be cut at the base and in a short time they will re-bloom vigorously. However, they can also be an excellent undergrowth, just as they are well suited for forming defensive hedges or in combination with other shrubs to complete flowering hedges in gardens
