Full Description

Bare root stock available Oct-April or PRE ORDER NOW and reserve

In woodlands it grows well in association with sessile oak. The rowan is widely planted to decorate streets and gardens not only for its striking looks but also for its slender size thus making it a good garden tree for smaller gardens.  Rowan berries are not poisonous but can be used for digestion problems.

Apparently the berries from the rowan can be made into a jelly rich in vitamin C which is eaten with game.
