Of the countless hawthorn species, the single- and double-stemmed hawthorns have established themselves in our latitudes. There are more than 1,000 species worldwide.
All hawthorn species are valuable bird protection and nesting trees, and a popular bee pasture. In home gardens, the hawthorn plant is an ecological asset. Insects, birds, and small animals thrive in its thorny branches. Due to its dense growth, it is also often planted as a windbreak.

Hawthorn is a shrub or small, deciduous tree from the rose family that can grow up to 10 meters tall and live for several hundred years. Its vitality speaks for itself!
Its widely branched branches bear smooth, grayish bark. Its twigs are protected by thorns. In spring, it produces glossy leaves with serrated edges. From May to June, white to pink flowers bloom in clusters. In autumn, the flowers develop into glossy, red fruits. These serve as food for birds and mammals.
