Crataegus schraderiana is one of the more rewarding hawthorns when edible fruit matters as much as ornament. Its relatively large purple-red haws are pleasant when fully ripe and well suited to jelly and preserves. The small tree also provides flowers for pollinators. It remains a thorny hawthorn, however, and the fruit contains several stones.

Schrader’s Hawthorn (Crataegus schraderiana) is an attractive small deciduous tree appreciated for its rounded habit, grey-green deeply divided foliage and ornamental fruiting.
In late spring, it produces clusters of creamy white flowers that are attractive to pollinating insects. These are followed in early autumn by dark purple-red fruit, giving the tree strong seasonal interest.
This hardy hawthorn generally reaches around 4 to 8 metres in height and spread. It tolerates a wide range of soils, including chalk, clay, loam and sandy soils, provided they are not waterlogged.
Crataegus schraderiana is well suited to gardens, naturalistic planting and small landscape schemes where a compact ornamental tree with flowers, foliage and autumn fruit is desired.
