Paul, England, 1860 Synonyms Crataegus laevigata 'Paul's Scarlet' Sometimes grown as a shrub but mostly sold as a tree. The sturdy lateral branches that grow outwards create a more or less rounded open type of crown. It can eventually attain a maximum width of 6 to 7 m. The trunk and branches are grey. The branches are less thorny than those of the species. The thorns are approx. 2.5 cm long and viciously sharp. The dark green leaves are lighter on the underside. The entire tree is covered with blossom in the spring. The flowers turn from even to pale red. The tough hard roots go deep and spread wide. The soil must be sufficiently compact since the tree is sensitive to wind when the root system is not well developed. The tree is insensitive to atmospheric pollution. A much-loved tree in smaller gardens. Stands up to hard surfaces © Copyright Boomkwekerij Gebr. Van den Berk B.V. 2021.

Üçler Karadeniz Technical University Trabzon, 61080 Turkey E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received 11.04.2019 Climate change as a fact of global warming requires the development of different perspectives on the planning and implementation of sustainable forestry techniques. Increasing temperatures cause drought on a global basis. In connection with, this using drought tolerant species in afforestation work is of great importance. In recent years Crataegus L. species (hawthorn) are also involved in afforestation. One of these species, C. monogyna, is characterized by drought tolerance. Furthermore, C. monogyna is the most important non­wood forest product species of Turkey. Hawthorn is widely used in medicine (treatment of coronary heart diseases), and cosmetics industry, agriculture and animal husbandry and human nutrition. On the other hand, it is used in erosion control, afforestation, industrial energy resources and for landscaping. Economic and ecological contribution of hawthorn to the national economy is quite high. Therefore, determination of suitable generative and vegetative reproduction techniques and vast production of seedlings of hawthorn species are extremely important. The characteristics of generative and vegetative propagation of Crataegus are discussed. For generative propagation of hawthorn species, the most effective and suitable procedure is treatment of seeds in ash solution. For vegetative propagation in culture in vitro the growth induced by BA (benzyladenine) and IBA (indole butyric acid) hormones increases the rate of callus formation and rooting.

  • Crataegus Laevigata 'Crimson Cloud' 'Crimson Cloud' English Hawthorn
    Fact Sheet ST-211 November 1993 Crataegus laevigata ‘Crimson Cloud’ ‘Crimson Cloud’ English Hawthorn1 Edward F. Gilman and Dennis G. Watson2 INTRODUCTION Crimson Cloud (also known as ‘Superba’) English Hawthorn grows rapidly in a pyramidal form to about 20 feet, then the crown expands to become oval or irregular (Fig. 1). The tree tolerates most soils, growing well in clay, but prefers heavy, dry loam. The main ornamental feature is white and red flowers borne in spring which together give the tree a deep pink color. Fruits are red and quite showy but do not cover the tree. Though quite ornamental, Hawthorns are susceptible to insect and disease problems. Branching habit is decidedly drooping and care should be given when locating this tree near pedestrian or vehicular traffic. GENERAL INFORMATION Figure 1.

DIFFERENTIATION OF MESPILUS AND CRATAEGUS, EXPANSION OF ×CRATAEMESPILUS, WITH SUPPLEMENTARY OBSERVATIONS ON DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE CRATAEGUS AND AMELANCHIER CLADES JAMES B. PHIPPS Department of Biology, The University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario N6A 5B7, Canada; email: [email protected] Abstract The paper argues the position for retaining a monotypic Mespilus, i.e., in the sense of M. germanica, the medlar. Recent cladistic papers lend support for Mespilus being sister to Crataegus, and there is a clear morphological distinction from Cra- taegus, emphasized by adaptation to carnivore frugivory. Mespilus secured, the paper then treats each of the known hybrids between Mespilus and Crataegus, making the new combination Crataemespilus ×canescens (J.B. Phipps) J.B. Phipps. Keywords: Crataemespilus ×canescens (J.B. Phipps) J.B. Phipps comb. nov.; inflorescence position; medlar; Mespilus a folk-genus; Mespilus distinct from Crataegus; Rosaceae; taxonomic history of Mespilus Introduction The author has a long-standing interest in generic delimitation in the Maloid genera of the Rosaceae (Maleae Small, formerly Maloideae C. Weber, Pyrinae Dumort.), as shown particularly in a series of papers with K. Robertson, J. Rohrer, and P.G. Smith (Phipps et al. 1990, 1991; Robertson at al. 1991, 1992; Rohrer at al. 1991, 1994) which treated all 28 genera of Maleae as recognised by us. There is also a revisionary treatment of New World Heteromeles M.J.

  • Trees to Avoid Planting in the Midwest and Some Excellent Alternatives
    Trees to Avoid Planting in the Midwest and Some Excellent Alternatives Dr. Laura G. Jull Dept. of Horticulture, UW-Madison Trees provide us with many environmental, aesthetic, functional, and economic benefits. Tree selection is one of the most important considerations when a homeowner, nurserymen, or landscaper is deciding what species to grow or plant. Many questions need to be answered including size, location, site characteristics, aesthetic features, pest susceptibility, hardiness, and maintenance considerations. Some trees can become a maintenance headache due to their inherent pest problems or lack of structural integrity. The trees represented in this story have not generally performed well in urban and suburban areas of the Midwest. Some are susceptible to insects and diseases, and some have severe structural problems such as being weak- wooded or prone to girdling roots or included bark formation. Others have cultural problems such as intolerance to high pH, road salt, drought, and poor drainage. A few tree species are invasive and should be avoided near sensitive areas or seed dispersal into woodlands could occur. Some of these trees may do quite well in other parts of the U.S., so my intention is not to apply a blanket statement for all these trees to all situations. Invasiveness and pest susceptibility can vary geographically. The article is based on more than 25 years of field experience and data collected from numerous states’ plant disease and insect diagnostic clinics, and conversations with arborists, nurseries, landscapers, and extension personnel. There are alternative species that can be used and are mentioned here. These alternative tree species have performed well in USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 4b.

  • Whole Plant Based Treatment of Hypercholesterolemia with Crataegus Laevigata in a Zebrafish Model Robert M Littleton1, Matthew Miller1,2 and Jay R Hove1,2*
    Littleton et al. BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine 2012, 12:105 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6882/12/105 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Whole plant based treatment of hypercholesterolemia with Crataegus laevigata in a zebrafish model Robert M Littleton1, Matthew Miller1,2 and Jay R Hove1,2* Abstract Background: Consumers are increasingly turning to plant-based complementary and alternative medicines to treat hypercholesterolemia. Many of these treatments are untested and their efficacy is unknown. This multitude of potential remedies necessitates a model system amenable to testing large numbers of organisms that maintains similarity to humans in both mode of drug administration and overall physiology. Here we develop the larval zebrafish (4–30 days post fertilization) as a vertebrate model of dietary plant-based treatment of hypercholesterolemia and test the effects of Crataegus laevigata in this model. Methods: Larval zebrafish were fed high cholesterol diets infused with fluorescent sterols and phytomedicines. Plants were ground with mortar and pestle into a fine powder before addition to food. Fluorescent sterols were utilized to optically quantify relative difference in intravascular cholesterol levels between groups of fish. We utilized the Zeiss 7-Live Duo high-speed confocal platform in order to both quantify intravascular sterol fluorescence and to capture video of the heart beat for determination of cardiac output. Results: In this investigation we developed and utilized a larval zebrafish model to investigate dietary plant-based intervention of the pathophysiology of hypercholesterolemia. We found BODIPY-cholesterol effectively labels diet- introduced intravascular cholesterol levels (P < 0.05, Student’s t-test). We also established that zebrafish cardiac output declines as cholesterol dose increases (difference between 0.1% and 8% (w/w) high cholesterol diet-treated cardiac output significant at P < 0.05, 1-way ANOVA).

  • Crataegus (Hawthorn)
    nysipm.cornell.edu 2019 Search for this title at the NYSIPM Publications collection: ecommons.cornell.edu/handle/1813/41246 Disease and Insect Resistant Ornamental Plants Mary Thurn, Elizabeth Lamb, and Brian Eshenaur New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, Cornell University CRATAEGUS Hawthorn pixabay.com Crataegus is a large genus of shrubs and small trees in the rose family commonly known as hawthorn. This popular ornamental has showy pink or white flowers in spring and colorful berry-like fruit. Some species also have long thorns that provide protection for wildlife but may be a hazard in the landscape–thornless cultivars are available. Like other rosaceous plants, hawthorns are sus- ceptible to a number of diseases including fire blight, scab, leaf spot and several types of rust. Insect pests include lace bugs and leaf miners. DISEASES Cedar Rust diseases on hawthorn, which include hawthorn rust and quince rust, are caused by sev- eral fungi in the genus Gymnosporangium that spend part of their life cycle on Eastern red cedar (Juni- perus virginiana) and other susceptible junipers, and another part of their life cycle on plants in the rose family, especially Malus and Crataegus. Since two hosts are required for these fungi to complete their life cycle, one way to reduce disease problems is to avoid planting alternate hosts near each other. Hawthorn Rust, caused by Gymnosporangium globosum, is a significant concern for Crataegus spp. in the Northeast (7). Hawthorns are the main broadleaved host for this rust, and yellow-orange leaf spots are the most common symptom. (8). With severe infections, foliage may turn bright yellow and drop prematurely (15).
