Description

Ballerina Indian Hawthorn is a particularly dwarf and floriferous selection, perfect for small spaces. It forms a dense, low mound of foliage that becomes blanketed in deep pink buds opening to light pink flowers in spring. Its smaller stature, prolific blooming, and tidy habit make it an excellent choice for edging pathways, planting in rock gardens, or using as a groundcover in sunny areas. It delivers maximum color impact with minimal space requirement.

• Dwarf & Floriferous: The smallest of the common cultivars, growing only 2-4 feet tall and wide, but producing a very heavy crop of flowers.

• Vibrant Pink Buds & Blooms: Flower clusters feature deep pink buds that open to light pink flowers, creating a charming two-tone effect.

• Ultra-Compact Groundcover Habit: Its low, spreading form makes it ideal for use as a flowering groundcover or for the front of borders.

• Tough & Adaptable: Shares the species’ tolerance for heat, drought, and poor soils once established.

• Minimal Pruning Required: Its natural shape is so compact that it rarely needs pruning beyond occasional light shaping after bloom.
