Downy hawthorn is a wide-spreading tree, 20-40 feet in height, with a horizontal branching and varying degrees of thorniness. The bark of the short trunk is silvery and scaly. It usually has a single trunk, but multi-trunk specimens do appear. \u003c\/span\u003eIt is somewhat slower growing than other hawthorns and has fewer thorns. Blooming a very soft white in mid-April before its leaves appear, this is our earliest hawthorn to bloom. Fall color is a dull red. This tree supports many kinds of wildlife and insects. Tolerant to roadside salt and harsh exposure, this is an excellent choice for a parkway tree if space allows. \u003cspan class=\"read-more-text\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Land Conservancy of McHenry County Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45177017368740,"sku":"TREE","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/3427\/4468\/files\/Crataegusmollisflowers.jpg?v=1710035437","url":"https:\/\/store.conservemc.org\/products\/copy-of-jack-oak-quercus-jackiana","provider":"The Land Conservancy of McHenry County Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
