Our range of fruiting Rowans invites you to discover these trees that are both ornamental and productive, whose berries are appreciated by gardeners and wildlife alike. The largest fruits are produced by hybrid varieties such as Sorbus 'Burka' which offers berries of good size, ideal for processing into juice or jams. The Sorbaronia 'Likerovyj Jarab' is another interesting variety, a hybrid of rowan and aronia, which produces large purple fruits perfect for preserves. The Sorbus 'Granatnaja' (Granatnaja) and Sorbus Titan, two other hybrids, also offer generous fruits with a tangy taste reminiscent of pomegranate, suitable for various culinary uses. Common species like Sorbus domestica (service tree) also produce edible fruits shaped like small apples or pears rich in vitamin C, which are consumed after becoming over-ripe. The Sorbus aucuparia (rowan), produces large clusters of red berries that attract birds and can be transformed into jellies for enthusiasts.
Fruiting rowans adapt to well-drained soils, in sun or partial shade, and withstand harsh winters. Winter mulching and regular watering during the first years promote their growth. To achieve good fruit production, choose a sunny location sheltered from strong winds.
