Care Guide
Excellent disease resistance, average pest resistance
Not prone to many diseases in cold regions but prone to fire blight in warm areas. Prune away affected branches if this happens. Lichen will sometimes grow on the bark, and in rural areas deer may eat the berries.MORE
Water during dry spells
When newly planted, your tree will need a little watering at least once a month for the initial couple of months. Afterwards keep moist but well drained.
Full sun to partial shade
Sorbus trees aren't too picky about their position - they will grow in open, sunny sites (6h+) or partial shade(3-6h).
Happy in most soils
Prefers well drained, acidic soils but will be fine in any type.
No feeding required
Don't worry, this isn't a hungry tree so your food bills won't be going up! ?v=1613300718
