OTHER COMMENTS:
THE FLOWERS YIELD TO RED BERRIES THAT PERSIST THROUGHOUT WINTER AND ARE EATEN BY BIRDS, SUCH AS CEDAR WAXWINGS. THE BARK OF WASHINGTON HAWTHORN TREES IS ATTRACTIVE, AND THE BRANCHES BEAR THORNS. SUMMER LEAVES ARE A SHINY, DARK GREEN; FALL FOLIAGE RANGES FROM ORANGE TO RED.
WASHINGTON HAWTHORN TREES ARE ATTRACTIVE ENOUGH TO BE TREATED AS SPECIMENS, AND THEIR FOLIAGE IS DENSE ENOUGH FOR THEM TO BE USED EN MASSE AS PRIVACY SCREENS. SOME HOMEOWNERS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE THORNS OF WASHINGTON
HAWTHORN
TREES AND PRUNE THEM INTO SECURITY HEDGES.
