Crataegus x media ‘Pauls Scarlet’ Midland Thorn Tree

The Crataegus x media ‘Paul’s Scarlet’ (commonly known as Midland Thorn) is a charming small tree that brings colour and character to any garden. With a neat, rounded shape and glossy, lobed green leaves that turn yellow-bronze in autumn, it provides seasonal interest all year round. In May, it bursts into a spectacular display of deep scarlet-pink, double flowers, followed by clusters of small red haws in autumn that attract birds and wildlife.
