Description
Crataegus laevigata 'Rosea Flore Pleno' is a superb variety of ornamental hawthorn. In May-June, it is covered with deep pink double flowers. This small bush with a rounded crown rarely exceeds 6m (20ft) in height and 4m (13ft) in width. In autumn, shiny red fruits appear, which are highly decorative and beloved by birds. Resistant, hardy, and easy to grow, it will find its place in any garden, even small ones.
Crataegus laevigata, known as Wood Hawthorn, Flowering Thorn, and Wild Hawthorn, is a botanical species native to central and southern Europe where it grows in deciduous or mixed forests, in open woods, or even in open areas (meadows and fields). This ornamental plant is ideal for hedges. It belongs to the large Rosaceae family. It is a spiny bush with a long life span, which can reach 10m (33ft) in height and 6m (20ft) in width at maturity, with a bushy and dense habit. It has very hard wood.
'Rosea Flore Pleno' is an old cultivar dating back to the early 19th century, and holds the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit. This bush has a rounded crown and reaches about 6m (20ft) in height and 4m (13ft) in width. The bark of the trunk is grey-brown and scaly, and the short stems are spiny and dark purple. Its foliage is alternate and deciduous. It consists of simple leaves, 2 to 5cm (1 to 2in) long, with an oval shape and 3 to 5 toothed lobes. The leaves are glossy dark green, with a duller underside. In May-June, numerous highly fragrant double flowers of dark pink with white undersides appear, clustered in dense corymbs. In September-October, shiny red fruits called "haws" appear, with a diameter of about 1.5cm (1in). They are spherical in shape and are consumed by birds. The fruits of Crataegus laevigata have 2 or 3 styles (pistils) and therefore 2 or 3 stones in the fruit, unlike those of Crataegus monogyna, a species with which it is often confused, which only have one.
Crataegus laevigata 'Rosea Flore Pleno' adapts to any well-drained soil, even limestone, in a sunny or semi-shaded position. Not demanding and very hardy, it will be satisfied with a balance pruning in February. With its small stature, it will find a place in gardens of all sizes, either as a standalone plant or integrated into an informal or defensive hedge. Resistant to pollution and sea spray, it is an excellent choice for urban or coastal gardens.

Plant in autumn in any well-drained soil, even limestone, in a sunny or semi-shaded position. Not very demanding, it will be satisfied with a balance pruning in February. To shape a hawthorn tree, reduce the bush to a single stem after planting. Then cut off all suckers at their point of origin.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
