Eleanor Taber Indian Hawthorn (2.5 Quart) Pink Evergreen Bushes

The robust evergreen shrub, Eleanor Taber Indian Hawthorne, is known for its densely packed branches and glossy, dark green leaves. In the spring, it bursts into bloom with an abundance of petite, rosy-pink flowers, followed by small black fruits in mid-summer. Apart from its visual appeal, this shrub is impressive for its resilience, showing a notable tolerance to drought once it is rooted and established. Its consistent, mounding growth pattern also makes maintenance easy, reducing the need for frequent pruning or shaping.

Eleanor Taber Indian Hawthorne is loved for its vibrant pink flowers in spring and its glossy, dark green foliage, which can sometimes turn purplish in colder weather. It typically reaches a compact size of 3-4 feet in height with a similar spread when fully mature.

This evergreen shrub is suitable for various uses, including foundation plantings, hedges, or as an individual specimen in gardens and landscapes. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, although a sunnier spot can enhance its blooming potential. Minimal pruning is necessary, but after the flowering season, trimming can be done to encourage bushier growth or to maintain a specific shape.

Eleanor Taber Indian Hawthorne is adapted to USDA Hardiness Zones 7-11. It requires regular watering, especially in its initial years. Once established, it shows a degree of drought tolerance, but watering during prolonged dry spells is still recommended.
