Planting & Care
1. Planting: The Crusader Hawthorn can tolerate nearly any soil type but prefers full sun. Place in a spot in your yard that receives full sun.
Once you've selected your location, dig a hole that's large enough to accommodate the root ball, place your tree and backfill with soil. Water the surrounding area to settle the roots.
2. Watering: The Crusader Hawthorn is tolerant of nearly any climate, from wet to dry. If you're not sure when to water, simply check the surrounding soil about 3 inches down and water when dry.
3. Fertilizing: Add a 5-5-5 fertilizer in early spring each year.
4. Pruning: The Crusader Hawthorn will maintain its shape without excessive pruning. Prune as needed to shape or remove dead branches. However, the Crusader Hawthorn blooms on old wood - pruning after bloom will eliminate fruit.

I’ve ordered plants and trees
I’ve ordered plants and trees by mail many times from many different places. This is my first order from Fast Growing Trees. The tree arrived in the best condition I’ve ever seen for a mail order plant. Healthy, leafed out, and ready to plant. The prices are higher, but it’s money we’ll spent. You get what you pay for.
Crusader Hawthorn
The tree WAS packed with excellence. The instructions to plant the Tree were clear and easy to follow
Tree
Tree was received in good condition. The packaging had it well protected.
Very Happy
I couldn't find a local source for a Hawthorne. Found this on line and gave it a try. Mine is currently planted in a container and being acclimated to my zone. The tree arrived healthy and has plenty of new growth since it arrived. I will plant it in the ground once our landscaping is done.
Crusader Hawthorn Tree
The tree arrived in good condition well packed and has been planted. So far so good but it's only been about 2-3 weeks. Very impressed with Fast Growing Trees customer service and quick delivery.
