Description
Sorbus aucuparia ‘Sheerwater Seedling’ is a Mountain Ash that is equally at home in urban environments.
The foliage is mid-green, compound and containing 4-9 pairs of leaflets. The creamy white flowers hang in clusters when they appear in the spring and are followed by bright red, bird friendly, red / orange berries in autumn just as the leaves turn yellow and gold.
This wildlife friendly tree will tolerate a wide range of soil conditions and does not mind being planted in semi-shade and is useful where space is limited, providing year-round interest.
Sorbus aucuparia ‘Sheerwater Seedling’ won the RHS Award of garden Merit in 2002.
