This small tree with white flowers is popular among landscapers and architects for its size and outstanding orange to red fall color. A Washington hawthorn after leaf drop is beautiful, almost as if it were in bloom again but this time with small, persistent red fruits. Native to the Southeastern United States, this tree possesses multi-season interest. Be sure to take care around the prominent thorns.
