Crataegus scabrifolia is a hawthorn from China that grows at altitudes between 1500 and 3000 m[1] in areas with high rainfall.[2] It is usually a large shrub or small tree, and usually without thorns. The edible fruit are large for a hawthorn, up to 2.5 cm in diameter, red or yellow, and are sold in local markets. The tree is apparently not cultivated outside China.[2]
