Its very decorative bark, a silvery gray, exfoliates with age, revealing orange tones.
A tree with a rounded and broad port, the Green Hawthorn Winter King reaches a height of 6 to 8 m in adulthood for the same width. It finds its place in all gardens. Resistant to pollution and disease, it adapts perfectly to urban areas. Very good hardiness, it supports winter temperatures down to -30 ° C. The Crataegus viridis Winter King tolerates any type of soil, even limestone, deep and well drained. It requires a sunny or half-shaded exposure.
