Crataegus marshallii, popularly known as Parsley Hawthorn, is a captivating member of the diverse Hawthorn genus. This remarkable deciduous shrub or tree showcases parsley-like bright green leaves that transform into striking shades of orange and burgundy during fall, delivering year-round visual interest. Reaching heights of 20-25 feet with a spread of 10-15 feet, its compact stature suits smaller landscapes, accentuated by a broad, open crown and slender, thorny branches. In mid to late spring, clusters of white flowers enhanced by red-tipped stamens bloom, providing essential nectar for pollinators. As autumn approaches, vivid red apple-shaped fruits appear, luring birds and mammals. Ideal for USDA zones 7-9, Parsley Hawthorn thrives in open, partially shaded areas and exhibits drought tolerance once established. Its versatility makes it perfect for rain, water, butterfly, or pollinator gardens. Beyond its beauty, this tree supports wildlife, assists in erosion control, and enhances air quality, making it a valuable addition to any ecologically balanced landscape.
