Discover the unique appeal of Crataegus punctata var. aurea, commonly known as Yellow Dotted Hawthorn or Yellow-berried Hawthorn, a rare and captivating addition to any garden. This shrub, eventually developing into a small, branching tree, boasts serrated dark green leaves that transition to vibrant yellow and orange hues in the fall. Its standout feature is the ornamental, golden yellow berries that emerge in late summer and autumn, sometimes taking on a reddish tinge in sunlight. Flourishing in full sun or dappled shade, this practically thornless variety is adaptable to any fertile soil except those that are waterlogged. With a height of 10-16 ft and a spread of 10 ft, it starts with a slow growth rate, gaining momentum once established. Showcasing stunning white blossoms in May, it serves as a prime choice for hedges, specimen plantings, or naturalized landscapes. Beyond its visual charm, it supports wildlife by providing a rich food source for birds, enhancing its ecological value. A true gardener's delight.
