Item description

Rowan Tree – European Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia), 50 Seeds Fast-Growing Ornamental Tree with Striking Fall Berries Native to Europe and Asia, the European Mountain Ash—commonly known as Rowan—is a fast-growing deciduous tree or large shrub admired for its elegant shape, showy white flowers, and clusters of bright orange-red berries. This tree thrives in cooler climates and has become a popular ornamental choice in North America, especially in Canada and the northern U.S., where it has even naturalized in the wild. ? Key Features: Height Spread: Grows 20 to 40 feet tall with a spread of 8 to 20 feet. Form: Narrow, upright-oval crown when young; becomes broader and more open with age. Leaves: Compound, pinnate green foliage with 9 to 15 serrated leaflets. In fall, leaves transform into a stunning display of yellow to reddish-purple. Flowers: Small, white, 5-petaled blooms appear in flat-topped clusters (3–5") in May, creating a beautiful spring show. Fruit: Clusters of bright orange-red berry-like pomes ripen in late summer. Though bitter when raw, they are often used in traditional jellies and preserves—especially in the UK as an accompaniment to game meat. Bark Twigs: Smooth, silvery-gray bark in youth, becoming scaly with age. Twigs are gray-brown with prominent buds and leaf scars. ? Wildlife Cultural Notes: Rowan berries are beloved by birds, making the tree a great choice for wildlife gardens. In folklore, Rowan has long been considered a protective tree, especially in the British Isles, where it was planted near homes to ward off evil. The name “Rowan” comes from an old Norse word meaning “red,” referring to its brilliant fruit. ? Plant Details: Zones: 3–7 Sun: Full Sun Water Needs: Medium Soil Preference: Moist, acidic, well-drained soils Fall Color: Yellow to reddish-purple Growth Rate: Fast Maintenance: Medium Tolerances: Air pollution tolerant, but not suitable for hot and humid climates ? Sowing Instructions for Sorbus aucuparia Seeds: Scarify: Soak seeds in water for 24 hours Stratify: Warm stratification: 30–60 days Cold stratification: 60–90 days at 40F in a moist (not wet) medium Germination: Sow 1/8” deep and keep soil consistently moist (not soggy) Perfect for: Small gardens, woodland edges, bird-friendly landscapes, and traditional European-style plantings. With four-season appeal, the Rowan Tree is both ornamental and functional, offering striking seasonal beauty and a connection to rich cultural history.
