The Hawthorn (Crataegus Monogyna) is a fast growing-- thorny native deciduous hedge-- with dark glossy green leaves.
In spring-- clusters of prominent scented white flowers burst into leaf within a few days of the initial buds appearing-- followed by glossy red haws in autumn-- which sustain out native birds. The leaves are 3--5 or 7 lobed-- bright green tinged with red. Prune out old growth after flowering to encourage new stems that will bloom the following year-- taking care not to remove flowering stems.
Hawthorn makes an excellent hedge with a long season of interest. Trim between July and March. For hedges 3-20ft (0.9-6m)-- plant 9-12ins (23-30cm) apart or for a denser or stock-proof hedge-- plant in a staggered double row with 15ins (38cm) between rows and 19ins (45cm) between plants.
