This is the largest of the hawthorns.  Generally grows into a pyramidal or rounded form. It flowers later than other hawthorns, producing clusters of white flowers with yellowish pink anthers.  The bark is light brown that starts off thin and smooth and becomes scaly.  Leaves are 2 inches long and almost 2 inches wide.  The leaves emerge bronze, but quickly become green.  Produces small, clusters of fruit in the early autumn that turn deep red by late autumn.  Leaves turn a burgundy fall color.  

<Plant Needs

Problems
Prone to rust diseases such as Cedar Hawthorn Rust and Cedar Quince Rust.  Flowers can be extremely malodorous.  Thorns can be a safety hazard.  Does not tolerate road salt.

Notes
Crataegus means 'strength', referring to the strong wood and phaenopyrum means 'with the appearance of a pear'.
