Crataegus brachyacantha
Species of hawthorn From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crataegus brachyacantha is one of the "black-fruited" species of hawthorn, but it is only very distantly related to the other black-fruited species such as C. douglasii or C. nigra.[2] The common names blueberry haw[3] and blueberry hawthorn[4] refer to the appearance of the fruit, which are almost blue, and does not refer to their taste. The species is rarely cultivated but has ornamental leaves, flowers, and foliage.[3][4] It is native to Louisiana, and also occurs just across the border of neighbouring states.[3]
