Kashmir Rowan Sorbus cashmiriana Rating: 0.0 ( 0 votes)
This description is for Kashmir Rowan (Sorbus cashmiriana):
A fine tree, very much like Kashmir wool which is also a product of the Himalayas
Perhaps one of the most attractive of the Sorbus genus, Sorbus cashmiriana boasts an elegance that few other trees of its size can. Known as the Kashmir Rowan, it produces soft pink, five-petalled blossoms, and when these have departed, they are replaced by clusters of white berries drooping from the end of each branch. Marry those factors with the fact its compound, serrated dark green leaves turn a striking shade of golden red in autumn, and it is not hard to understand why it quickly becomes a prized feature in any garden. It thrives in humus-rich soil with access to plenty of sunshine, and requires very little attention.
