CRATAEGUS LAVALLEI Lavalle Hawthorn

1029 Banks, Cincinnati

Planted: 1964

Site: 5' Square in Sidewalk

1971 Comments: The trees are planted in a bad sidewalk tree well, but appear to be growing quite nicely. There are utility lines overhead, but it is doubtful they will be a problem. The trees have fruited satisfactorily during the period of this study. There will be some pruning necessary to maintain a uniform character that is desirable in this particular area.
