Crataegus ‘Paul’s Scarlet’ Multi-stem / Red Hawthorn Multistem

350.00

Description

Crataegus ‘Paul’s Scarlet’ is one of those trees that quietly earns its keep all year, then absolutely steals the show in late spring. Grown as a multi-stem, it has a naturally architectural shape — perfect for adding structure to a border, softening a boundary, or creating a focal point in a smaller garden without feeling heavy.
In May and June, it’s covered in rich, double, deep pink-red flowers that look almost like tiny roses scattered through the branches. As the season moves on, the foliage stays a fresh, healthy green before turning warm tones in autumn.
A brilliant choice if you want something hardy, reliable, and full of character — especially in Irish gardens.
