Do a little research on odor. Some hawthornes have an unpleasant smell. You may want to plant it where it is seen but not smelled.
bbbbbbbbb I love the sweet scents wafting in the breeze. I stop to admire the vibrant colors of all living things. And people think me odd. Then ODD I am!!!

I don't know about that particular Hawthorn , but I agree on the odor of some . I have a native hawthorn in my side yard , and when it blooms is is really yucky . I try to stay upwind from it ! LOL Otherwise , I really like it . I did trim off all the long thorns from the lower part , and the lower branches , because I was afraid my young granddaughters might get poked in the eyes with them . ( They were pretty adventuresome while small ! )
There is another native variety , in another location . I have never noticed an odor from it .

If you want berries, try 'heteromeles arbutifolia' Christmas Berry. It is evergreen. And it has berries for months.
