Hawthorn

We went to see our new house yesterday, to take some measurements and get a first time look at the backyard, which was covered by snow when we bought it. We knew there was a hedge there, but we didn’t know what it was. I thought I might want to replace it with something native, that had edible berries. Well- guesss what? If the current owner is correct about its identity, it is already native (or at least, there are native versions of it) and it has edible berries. Woohoo! Apparently it’s a hawthorn. Yay! Rated 4 out of 5 for usefullness on the Seeds for a future database.
