This description is for Kashmir Rowan (Sorbus rosea):
Rose tinted berries create a high point in the autumn
Once considered a cultivar of Sorbus hupehensis, recently Sorbus rosea has been classified as a species in its own right. A shrub ideally suited to small gardens, it offers dark green foliage in the form of pinnate, compound leaves with several pairs of lance-shaped leaflets in spring and summer, which turn to a dramatic red in autumn. What is most distinctive about Sorbus rosea is its milky-pink berries that darken to a rosy-pink by winter. Like many of the genus, it also likes well-drained, humus-rich soil and plenty of sunshine. Low maintenance and hardy, it is an excellent option for urban gardeners to consider.
