Crataegus viridis 'Winter King', commonly known as Winter King Hawthorn, a stunning ornamental tree perfect for adding year-round charm to your landscape. This remarkable, largely spineless tree, reaching heights and spreads of 25-35 feet, is celebrated for its exceptional winter interest and resilient nature. During the colder months, its branches are adorned with bright orange-red fruits that provide a vibrant splash of color and serve as a crucial food source for birds. As spring arrives, Winter King Green Hawthorn bursts to life with clusters of fragrant, five-petaled white flowers, attracting butterflies and other pollinators.

Tolerant of diverse soil types and conditions, including drought, clay, and urban pollution, this adaptable tree thrives in full sun, effortlessly enhancing garden ambiance as a low-maintenance specimen. Its dense, vase-shaped crown boasts glossy green leaves that transform into a stunning fall display of purple and scarlet hues. Introduced in 1955, this cultivar features fewer thorns and displays elegant, exfoliating silver-gray bark that reveals a warm orange hue with age. Ideal for accenting lawns, streets, and gardens, Winter King Green Hawthorn is undeniably a top choice for those seeking both aesthetic appeal and functional versatility. Embrace a tree that combines elegance and resilience, ensuring your garden remains captivating all year round.
