Bare Root - Cardinal Royal® Mountain Ash | Sorbus aucuparia 'Michred'

This improved selection of Mountain ash was developed by Michigan State University. Cardinal Royal® is characterized by the straight trunk and uniform branching habit. It has dark green foliage with a silvery underside and is a vigorous grower that turns orange-red in autumn.  This variety has clumps of white flowers in the spring that produce bright red berries in the late summer to early fall. The berries attract birds to feast on the berries and provides winter food. It will provide best performance in acid soils with good drainage.
