Latin Name: Sorbus aucuparia ‘Black Hawk’

Command attention with the bold vertical presence of Black Hawk Mountain Ash, a statuesque ornamental tree offering exceptional year-round interest. Its distinctive columnar form creates a striking architectural element in the landscape, reaching heights of 25-30 feet while maintaining a narrow, space-saving footprint – perfect for urban gardens and tight spaces.

In spring, showy clusters of white flowers give way to vibrant orange-red berries that persist through winter, providing a critical food source for birds when other options are scarce. The tree’s elegant fern-like foliage emerges dark green, then erupts in fiery orange-red hues each autumn.

Standout Qualities:

  • Exceptional narrow, upright growth habit
  • Winter-persistent orange-red berries
  • Brilliant fall colour
  • Resistant to wind burn and sun scald
  • Tolerant of urban conditions

Important Note: Thrives in well-drained sites – avoid wet locations.

An ideal choice for:
• Narrow planting spaces
• Winter interest gardens
• Bird-friendly landscapes
• Fall colour displays
• Urban and street plantings
