Sorbus aucuparia 'Cardinal Royal'

Sorbus aucuparia ‘Cardinal Royal’, known as royal mountain ash ‘Cardinal’, is a compact and highly ornamental tree particularly appreciated for its abundant white spring blossoms, followed by clusters of bright red berries in summer-autumn that attract birds and add a dynamic splash of color to the garden. Its soft green, slightly cut foliage offers a light and elegant texture that harmonizes well with beds, borders, or small Quebec gardens. Moderately sized and well-proportioned, it is perfectly suited as a standalone tree, at the back of a flower bed, or in a free-standing hedge, providing seasonal visual interest and biodiversity thanks to its melliferous flowers and fruits appreciated by wildlife, all while remaining easy to maintain.
