{"product_id":"hawthorn-ballerina-1-gal","title":"BALLERINA HAWTHORN 1gal","description":"\u003cp data-sourcepos=\"3:1-3:446\"\u003eA charming, vase-shaped tree adorned in late spring with masses of fragrant, single white flowers that often have a blush of pink. These lovely blooms create a cloud-like effect before giving way to small, red berries in the fall, which attract birds and add interest in winter. The Ballerina Hawthorn typically reaches a modest height and spread of 3 feet, making it an excellent choice for smaller yards or as a lovely specimen tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-sourcepos=\"5:1-5:411\"\u003eNow, when it comes to sunshine, the Ballerina Hawthorn thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day to ensure the best flowering and fruit production. While it can tolerate some light afternoon shade, a sunny location will result in the most abundant blooms and brightest berries. And for those of you concerned about deer, hawthorns are generally considered quite deer resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-sourcepos=\"7:1-7:445\"\u003eTo help your Ballerina Hawthorn flourish and provide you with years of beautiful spring flowers and fall berries, I recommend planting it in well-draining soil. When planting, amend the soil with Watters Premium Mulch to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, and provide a healthy root environment. In early spring, as new growth begins, feed your tree with Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to encourage strong growth and abundant flowering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-sourcepos=\"9:1-9:215\"\u003ePlant a Ballerina Hawthorn in your garden, and get ready to enjoy its delicate spring beauty, attractive fall berries, and graceful form. It's a lovely small tree that offers multi-seasonal interest! Happy planting!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-sourcepos=\"11:1-11:77\"\u003e#BallerinaHawthorn #WhiteFlowers #SmallTree #DeerResistantTree #WattersGarden\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Monrovia Nursery Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359708049616,"sku":"SH-EG-1-HAWTHORN-BALLERINA","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/8331\/3360\/files\/BALLERINAHAWTHORN.png?v=1750278870","url":"https:\/\/wattersgardencenter.com\/products\/hawthorn-ballerina-1-gal","provider":"Watters Garden Center","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
