Black Hawthorn #870094

Asked May 25, 2024, 7:22 PM EDT

I planted a Black Hawthorn tree two years ago and it never looks like it is thriving. I put it in dry soil. Is it drought tolerant, or did I make a mistake by putting it there? Thanks.

Hi Jim:

Black hawthorn will tolerate drought conditions once established.  It will need a regular watering schedule until then.  I've attached an article with additional information for you including habitat preferences...
