The hardy little Crataegus monogyna, commonly known as the Hawthorn Tree or Quickthorn, is a beloved native species for UK gardens, hedgerows and larger land-planting projects. Supplied as a bare-root specimen, it allows you to plant during dormancy (November–March) and establish strong roots before the growing season begins. With its abundance of spring flowers, attractive red “haws” and dense structure favoured by wildlife, this tree is ideal whether you’re a keen gardener, professional landscaper, ecological restoration planner or landowner seeking long-term benefits.
