Its foliage of deep glossy green cascades into a sophisticated palette of orange, scarlet, and purple come autumn, a captivating metamorphosis to behold. Thriving under the full sun and requiring moderate water, Washington Hawthorn is an unyielding companion to urban and residential landscapes alike, undeterred by drought or airborne salts.
