The Hawthorn berries are starting to form. Thorny shrub or tree (up to 10m) with dark green deeply lobed leaves. It flowers in spring (May-June), producing white clustered flowers very like those of Blackthorn with which it is often confused. In late summer it forms the bright oval red fruits 'haws' shown in the picture. It is very common in hedgerows, scrub and woodlands particularly in heavy soils. Pictured at the Old Warden railway cutting mid August 2005. Picture taken 11th June 2006 at Felmersham, Bedfordshire.
