Crataegus harbisonii is a rare species of hawthorn. Once common in the Nashville area, its population has been reduced significantly in modern times.[1] It is now currently known only from small populations in Davidson and Obion County, Tennessee.[2][3] This species has been taken into cultivation.[1] It forms a vigorous shrub to 8 m in height with hairy leaves, attractive flowers and round reddish fruit.[4][5]
It is closely related to Crataegus ashei and Crataegus triflora.[4]
