A native wild tree producing beautiful sweet smelling blossom in spring followed by red berries in autumn.These can be used to make jelly.Thrushes and other birds go mad for them.Rowan makes an excellent hedgerow or garden tree and can have multi-stems if pruned. An upright, oval-shaped tree with a neat outline making this a good choice in tight spaces or where height but not spread is required.
The mountain ash or rowan is a native European tree, especially in high altitudes where its robust hardiness ensures its survival. Once credited with magical powers and often planted near dwellings as an insurance against misfortune, it is widely planted in gardens, both as the species and in its many varieties. The trees tolerate a wide range of soils and sites, regularly producing huge crops of bright red berries in dense pendent bunches, which attract birds of all kinds. It succeeds particularly well in town gardens, and also when planted closely as a screen or informal large hedge.
